Abstract

The session is primarily directed towards those who may want to improve student learning about energy and climate by use of a package of curricular resources centered on the PBS series “EARTH: The Operators’ Manual” (ETOM) and the accompanying book by award-winning geoscientist and communicator, Richard Alley. See http://earththeoperatorsmanual.com/landing/watch-share

Each of the three programs has its own page:

A new NSF-funded project with NCSE and P2K is piloting the use of these resources for First Year Reading programs or in the classroom.

Our goal is to deliver a suite of materials that can be used by schools that require all first year students to read a single book on critically important topics to promote interaction and engagement among and between their first-year cohorts.

Participants will also learn how to access to thousands of high quality encyclopedia style articles and other information about a wide range of climate change science and solutions through the Climate Adaptation and Mitigation E-Learning (CAMEL) web resource www.CAMELclimatechange.org
