Have Students Create Their Own Segments About Ecosystems

Great Lakes Now covers a wide variety of topics that affect the Great Lakes region, its native plants and animals, and its residents. We encourage educators to watch this show with students and then empower students to do their own environmental reporting in communities around our state. Download our Educator Guide for detailed instructions and resources for student-led environmental journalism, and watch out YouTube playlist of our favorite segments to get a feel for the series.
