National Parks Traveler: North Cascades Institute's Park Connections

Nature is an incredibly powerful and successful teacher. Of course, students need teachers to deliver the lessons.

Organizations like NatureBridge, the Cuyahoga Valley Institute, the Yellowstone Institute, The Great Smoky Mountains Institute. And the North Cascades Institute. These nonprofit organizations use national parks as their classrooms. Lynn Riddick talks with Saul Weisberg to understand how the North Cascades Institute teaches children well.
