Whispers of Loss: The Significance of One Degree

---

Beschrijving

This learning scenario fosters a deep understanding of climate change and biodiversity loss. Through interactive games, simulations, and the analysis of satellite data, students learn about the greenhouse effect and how even a one-degree increase impacts ecosystems globally. The activities encourage critical thinking and problem-solving while promoting environmental responsibility.

Students engage in collaborative tasks, investigate climate phenomena using real-world data, and reflect on the human impact on ecosystems. The scenario not only strengthens scientific literacy but also enhances students’ ability to connect local actions with global environmental challenges. The resource uses inquiry-based methodologies, encouraging students to propose their own solutions to biodiversity loss.By the end of the activities, students develop greater environmental awareness and feel empowered to act sustainably within their communities.

Hoe gebruik je deze bron

In this activity, the teacher begins by introducing the concepts of biodiversity loss and climate change, using real-world examples and interactive videos. Students then analyze satellite data to visualize climate patterns and explore the impact of a one-degree temperature rise.

Next, they engage in activities that simulate climate effects on ecosystems, followed by discussions that link human actions to environmental outcomes. Students also work on a project where they brainstorm and propose individual and collective actions to protect biodiversity.

The activity concludes with an assessment and a reflection session, where students share their ideas on how small lifestyle changes can contribute to climate change mitigation.
