First off, I wrote a pretty bad-ass $20K grant for this project, so I"m pleased to have been the one who saw it through. Initially, we were set to hire an external curriculum developer, which always struck me as a little silly - I mean, I do have a teaching license so I know how to do this kind of curriculum-development-jazz.
But anyway, that fell through and I rose up as the Mighty Writer of a Cool Thing.
You can download it now at GoRecycleYourself.com for free. Just click on Resources for Educators. And realize that I was the one behind everything you see (even the video selection for the gallery). Yay!
One sad thing is that my boss made me delete my byline within the actual curriculum's Acknowledgements section. I'm merely listed as a contributor, along with several people to whom I talked to about the project. I suspect that sometimes, bosses want to take some credit for projects they did not participate in. And it helps if they can physically erase the authorship of the actual worker bee.
But I actually wrote the entire thing, dammit. Let this be known to the world!
