This online course investigates the political, social, economic and environmental forces that have shaped the development of the Lake Tahoe basin. Focusing on the use of the area from the indigenous Washoe to the runaway development that accommodated the crowds of the present, students will learn how the use of the environment has led to deterioration of the basin. Students will come away from this course with valuable lessons about how human development has affected the development of the West and how citizens and the government have attempted to solve the environmental problems that have resulted. Students will have the opportunity to apply what they have learned as they develop integrated lessons for their classroom that align to state, district or national standards, including the Common Core Standards. Visiting Lake Tahoe is optional. A print version of this course in a PDF portfolio is available for those students unable to complete an online course. Please contact the instructor to make arrangements if you would like this option.
