Alberta – Social Inquiry into Climate Change

The Faculty of Education of the University of Alberta, in partnership with the Imperial Oil National Centre for Mathematics, Science and Technology Education (IONCMASTE), will prepare teaching resources that inquire into climate change and the possibilities for action and will facilitate teaching about climate change action by providing workshops for teachers across Alberta. This project will include an inventory of existing climate change resources, an analysis of the gaps in those resources and the development of items to address those gaps. Further, the project will focus on curricular links, teaching topics, science concepts and will provide examples of the effect of science on society.
