caring hearts

The “Camera” component of SCA aligns with the “Heart,” or caring, focus of education for sustainability. Specifically, photovoice aims to enhance youths’ awareness of the interconnectedness of the natural world. As a pedagogical technique, photovoice aims to facilitate youths’ ability to make connections between their own lives and SCA’s science content, simultaneously making abstract science concepts more concrete as well as personally relevant.
