Last term, the Environmental Education class (ESCI 302) under the direction of NTEP Instructor, Kaviq Kaluraq, expressed interest in carrying out a Legacy Project assignment. It is common for undergraduate students to take on legacy projects that students see as meaningful to their community. The community they target can either be campus based or community based. Legacy projects give students an opportunity to leave something behind that is meaningful to them and beneficial for the future.
Environmental educators, like Kaviq Kaluraq, sometimes use legacy projects to help educate students about issues and solutions that are meaningful to the students in a fashion that makes issues and solutions that are manageable at the personal level. It gives them an opportunity to learn more about the issues and practice sourcing support for specific causes, research, and educate students or the public. Additionally, it promotes volunteerism.
