SLH Webinar: Understanding the basics of climate change

Join the Science Learning Hub in collaboration with the New Zealand Association of Science Educators (NZASE) and expert guest Associate Professor Chris Eames, in a session which addresses the question, What is climate change?

Climate change is one of the most urgent challenges facing us today. It is critical we all have an understanding of what it is and its impact on us and the environment. As educators, we play a pivotal role in equipping our students with the knowledge and tools to comprehend and address this complex socio-ecological challenge.

This is a three-part webinar series. The first part explores a basic understanding of the science of climate change, and we will be discussing the role of key greenhouse gases and their effects on the climate. The key ideas shared in this presentation will be supported by resources such as diagrams, articles, activities and videos to help deepen your understanding of the science behind climate change.

The second and third webinars explore pedagogical approaches that support climate change education at both a primary and secondary school level – choose which of these suits you. Links for registration for these will be confirmed soon. Save these dates: 27 and 28 November.
