DESCRIPTION:
- During History classes learners will be exposed to global topics, themes and "dive deeper" into global context. Also, learners will participate in the MIT World Climate Simulation twice, at the beginning and the end of the project. The history class will help the learners better understand the global issues and all aspects related to the UN Climate Simulation.
GOAL: Understand how deeper connections, context and connect affect the understanding and application of the climate simulation.
Data:
- Learners will reflect every week, capturing the weekly topic and documenting the project journey. Each learner will develop a "Reflective PPT" allocating each week's response. TEMPLATE
- Video for Climate Simulation I and II (beginning and end of project)
