Éducation et programmes d’animation

Les sites web suivants décrivent de superbes activités qui aident les étudiants à explorer le monde excitant de l’entomologie. Ils sont triés selon l’âge ciblé et varient de courtes sessions à des projets plus longs qui peuvent être fait individuellement par les étudiants ou comme projets en classe. Nous encourageons les éducateurs à utiliser ces activités pour aider dans l’enseignement aux étudiants sur les insectes et leur rôle vital qu’ils jouent dans nos vies. Merci à Payten Smith d’avoir assemblé cette information.
