Community Outreach: Partnership with REAL

One of our main activities throughout the year is working with students from the Redwood Environmental Academy of Leadership (REAL) program, which is part of Redwood High School in Redwood City, CA.

REAL is a hands-on learning program where students learn environmental and community leadership skills while earning academic credit in science, and career and technical education.

Activities with REAL:

• Regular teaching visits in the classroom at Redwood High School
• Field trips to Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve, Fitzgerald Marine Reserve, and the Stanford O'Donohue Farm
• Shadow Day: visiting Stanford, shadowing SEEDS members, and learning about our lives as college students

PAST ACTIVITIES:
Virtual Activities in 2020-2021 with REAL:

• The Stanford SEEDS student chapter is leading four virtual environmental eduvation sessions with the REAL program teacher and students! The topics that they will cover include:
  • The Green New Deal
  • Climate Justice
  • Indigenous Wildfire Management
  • Plant Communities at Jasper Ridge

Each lesson in this series focuses on giving students a comprehensive understanding of aspects of the topic, from its definition, examples in the United States and in the Bay Area, and finally ways to become involved. Throughout the lesson, students are asked to engage via questions, watch interactive presentations and give short responses through Pear Deck.
