On-line "Quests" related to environmental education concepts and other materials integrated from Smithsonian-sponsored conferences are now available for use from the Smithsonian Center for Education and Museum Studies. The quests, which are suitable for all age groups according to the designers, include "a digital badge program designed to foster project-based learning and inspire students to explore their own ideas and interests" and work is submitted for review by Smithsonian experts. Teachers can also earn digital badges for their work. http://thejournal.com/articles/2013/02/14/smithsonian-launches-quests-program-to-encourage-discovery-and-collaboration.aspx?admgarea=News1 For more information and to register, visit http://smithsonianquests.org/
