Abstract

This article describes the Caring for Planet Earth Interactive Exhibit and School Enrichment Program developed by Oklahoma Cooperative Extension professionals. The purpose of the exhibit and school enrichment program is to address concerns, misconceptions, and environmental education needs of Oklahoma youth. The exhibit uses innovative and creative ways to address environmental issues while reaching a large culturally diverse audience. The school enrichment curriculum consists of seven lessons that reinforced environmental experiences in the exhibit. Pre-test/post-test results reveal that the Caring for Planet Earth project is an effective method of educating a mass audience about environmental issues.
