4. Will I need to do any work or preparation beforehand?
We require very little. A WildED educator will contact you prior to coming to your classroom to go over any requests or questions you may have. Our basic requirements are: a room that can be darkened for a slide show, a power source, and a screen suitable for projection. Also, we request that teachers and students complete a short post-program evaluation form so we can measure how well we are doing.
