Critical Thinking and Climate Misinformation
For grades 6-12 educators
Support students in developing critical thinking and information-literacy skills by examining how climate-related information is presented and evaluated. In this session, led by the Climate Education Leadership Team, educators will explore common types of misleading or incomplete climate information and practice strategies for evaluating sources, assessing evidence, and identifying flawed reasoning. Participants will leave with a classroom-ready lesson and presentation designed to strengthen analytical thinking and evidence-based discussion.
Travel to Learn: Grants for Climate Change Education
For all educators
Join an interactive session exploring climate-focused travel opportunities that can transform your teaching and deepen your environmental expertise. Discover programs like Project Ice, Fund for Teachers, and Don Quixote grants that support educators in pursuing climate science fieldwork, sustainability research, and environmental education experiences worldwide. We'll discuss how these immersive experiences strengthen your content knowledge, provide authentic connections to climate issues, and inspire student engagement with one of our generation's most pressing challenges. Learn practical strategies for identifying funding sources, aligning proposals with program priorities, and crafting compelling applications.
We'll close with dedicated time to begin drafting your own application, so bring your ideas—you'll leave with concrete next steps toward your climate education adventure.
