Abstract

Down-to-Earth is an innovative award-winning instructional resource that focuses on gardening through the use of the scientific method. This resource helps youth ages 9-12 bridge a gap between informed decision-making and responsible stewardship. The goal of Down-to-Earth is to enrich critical thinking and problem-solving skills. The program allows youth educators to draw on a rich mixture of multi-disciplinary and inter-disciplinary topics. The effectiveness of Down-to-Earth is demonstrated through increased academic achievement, attitudinal and behavioral changes. This educational program is adaptable for all ages, with a variety of learning style preferences, and from different ethnic and racial backgrounds.
