All online classes require an internet connection. Class instruction will occur within the virtual classroom on Zoom where you can interact with the instructor and other students through video, audio, and/or chat functions. You can use Zoom on computers, tablets, and phones. Tablets and phones are somewhat limited in what they allow you to do, but you will still be able to see and hear the class.
Online classes offered are taught by professional instructors through Zoom — the video & audio communication platform. We use Zoom because it allows for the interactivity between instructors and students that we believe is important for authentic learning.
This lecture will take place online. Registered students will receive login instructions.
Building upon a millennia-old tradition of environmental stewardship, Indigenous peoples have developed innovative systems to manage the forests that remain under their sovereign control in ways that support commercial enterprise, protect cultural use, and promote ecosystem health.
Increasingly, federal and state forest managers are forging partnerships with Indigenous communities to devise ways to successfully maintain forest resilience, species diversity, and culturally important landscapes in a rapidly changing climate. Join Professor Michael Dockry as he discusses current forest management projects while uncovering the indigenous roots of sustainable forestry in the United States today.
