Calumet Nature Educators Database
The Calumet Nature Educators Database links two important lists. The first is a list of nature education providers in the Calumet region of Illinois and Indiana at the southern end of Lake Michigan. The second is a comprehensive list of the region’s schools. The two lists are cross-referenced and mapped in order to answer crucial questions about nature education in the region.
The database contains twelve maps and a table with three spreadsheets. All have been rendered in .pdf format. To open them, the user will need to have a recent version of Adobe Reader. This may be downloaded at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html. One may then use Adobe Reader’s tools to print, save, and search the document. The maps and technical appendix are included in this file. The table is a separate document. They include:
