Public Sphere
The public sphere project I choose to do was to create some kind of conservation and wildlife management groups around campus. These groups or orginizations would be involved with conserving the land and the enviornment around campus. I am not totally sure what projects we are going to try and do at this point. One of them I have in mind would be to clean up the outdoor theatre on campus which is recently convered with falling down trees from the past winter strom. Most students have never seen this place but it is up by the baseball fields in the woods. I thought this would be a good to create these groups to conserve all the surronding wooded acres and lakes that USI campus is lucky to have.
Getting groups together that perform projects outside of the classroom is good for the students. They would be able to get outside and participate in experimental learng by doing hands on activities. It is proven that students get more out of projects if they are hands on activities. This would also get students away from their everyday lectures.
I planned on setting up a booth on the lawn with a big tri-fold poster board loaded with infromation and pictures. I would also like to play a video that relates to conservation or wildlife management. I would also make flyers on the specific project that we could do for public sphere day.
Overall I think this project would be very successful and fun. It would allow the students to get outside and expeirence many different type of learning skills. Even if i do not get anything started maybe I will influence someone else to get something going.
