Aware of Climate Change

Lifting аwareness for climate change and understanding of environmental issues among students in classroom is essential. GLOBE Pedosphere protocols were integrated into my classroom by teaching methodologies as an innovative approach to enhance climate change education. The Pedosphere, which encompasses the soil as a crucial component of the Earth's system, offers a unique perspective to comprehend climate change.

My strategy is to take students out of the classroom and let them be in charge in collecting data by respecting the protocols and practical activities.

Practical activities such as soil sampling, analysis, and understanding soil structure, temperature, texture, humidity or soil color as health indicators can elucidate the relationship between soil dynamics and climate change processes. GLOBE visualization system helps the students to explore the relation between elevation and temperature and begin learning how to make important patterns evident in visualizations, or to compare and detect data distinction on the GLOBE net all over the world.

Leveraging and comparing data with real-world data by GLOBE Visualisation System make students achieve deeper understanding of environmental processes. New knowledge encourages critical thinking and problem-solving skills among students.

By fostering a deeper connection with the Pedosphere, students become informed and proactive contributors to sustainable solutions addressing climate change on a local and global scale.
