Summary
The responses to the survey are more diverse than the authors anticipated. ECEE seems to attract people from many disciplines, specializations, and backgrounds. They read a great variety of journals and belong to many different organizations. The number of people with a strong interest in environmental education during the early childhood years seems to be growing.
Individuals interested in becoming more involved in environmental education at the early childhood level may wish to contact the ECEE networking center at Bowling Green State University for further information. Individuals with ideas for the future direction of the network are also encouraged to contact the center. Interest has been expressed in establishing a World Wide Web page for the network. Look for this as a possible next step.
For further information or suggestions relating to the network, contact Dr. Ruth Wilson, Department of Special Education, Bowling Green State University, Bowling Green, OH 43403. Contact can also be made by phone (419/372-7278), fax (419/372-8265), or e-mail (rwilso2@bgnet.bgsu.edu).
