Beschreibung
The resource introduces an engaging teaching method centered on the Mystery Game, designed to foster critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration among students. It focuses on the conservation of building-nesting species such as swifts, sparrows, kestrels, and bats, highlighting the impact of human activities on biodiversity.
Through small-group activities, students tackle real-world conservation challenges framed as mysteries, connecting biology concepts with environmental issues. The method incorporates diverse tools, including visual aids, QR codes, and structured inquiry, allowing students to analyze evidence, develop hypotheses, and present their findings.
Aligned with problem-based and inquiry-based learning approaches, the resource promotes Nachhaltigkeit Bürgerschaftliches Engagement, encouraging students to explore solutions to ecological problems while recognizing their role in conservation. It integrates scientific practices such as hypothesizing, data interpretation, and communication, making it suitable for interdisciplinary teaching.
The guide provides step-by-step instructions for implementation, including lesson formats, classroom procedures, and assessment strategies. It encourages student-led learning, creativity, and the development of critical competencies like teamwork, scientific inquiry, and public speaking.
By linking conservation efforts to students’ local contexts, the resource fosters environmental stewardship and awareness of human-wildlife coexistence. It serves as a flexible and dynamic tool for educators aiming to enhance their teaching practices while addressing key sustainability challenges.
