We know that climate change has a serious communication issue, but we can get creative in how we take it on in the classroom to support students' sensemaking in science. Connect with me to think about how we can teach students about climate change in ways that center on building their capacity as community change agents who drive positive solutions. You'll find that positioning them as the drivers of instruction through a systems-thinking lens is one big way to find joy as we focus on creative student-driven ideas and solutions together.

We understand that some of these workshops do not work for educator's schedules, so all registrants will receive a recording and additional resources to their e-mail within 1 week of the event.

We are striving to make our events more welcoming to all, with specific goals about racial equity and inclusivity. Your answers during registration will help us to know how we are doing.

The workshop will be from 5:00–6:00pm CT.
