  5. “I seem to learn/retain information better when I am up and moving around rather than sitting still.” R.H

  6. “I liked that through photography we learned about climate change and its effects. It was a fun way to learn about climate change.” -K.C.

  7. “Taking pictures gave me a real-life perspective on how man can cause global warming and climate change.” -L.H

  8. “The variety of learning methods helped me better understand the material.” -N.H.

  9. “One of the first times where a class felt less like a class and more like something I would do in my free time.” -B.B

  10. “Watching Carly skip across the field with delight claiming- ‘I am a photographer’ after participating in a workshop led by Leah Beach (teaching artist) run through DiAE was inspiring. He was engaged, empowered and excited, something I rarely see from him in the classroom. Traditional education is hard for him, but after taking pictures outside, he even engaged in the content discussion in the classroom. What a transformation.” Stephanie Sherman, Sussex Academy, Science Teacher
