Global Education Unit Plan

A Comparative Study on Climate Change to Local and Foreign Environments

Due to climate change,
students will study statistics on how animal and plant populations are changing all over the world.  

This unit will be launched with studying their own local National Parks in the California Sierras, where bark beetles are decimating huge numbers of pine trees in the forests due to the drought.  They will learn the science skills of collecting and analyzing data, and then connect how the phenomenon is connected to climate change. The students will then embark on an inquiry project about whether the animal, plant and climate change phenomenon is only in California, or is it happening in other parts of the world as well?  Groups will select case studies around the world from various global resources, and identify data evidence from various ecosystems to support whether or not climate change really exists. Students will then communicate their understanding through providing global evidence of climate change. They will create action plans on teaching the public on how to be global citizens in protecting the environment.  The summary of their learning will be producing public service announcements that will be distributed through social media, and hopefully distribution will go beyond our state.
