Learning Activities - Asia and Pacific
Learning Activities
The Learning Activities Toolkit is a collection of short learning activities designed to enhance and expand students' skills in Discussing what data are and the role of data in society; Identifying and selecting data appropriate to an inquiry; Conducting analysis and interpretation of data critically; Communicate data-based insights and Differentiate between ethical and unethical use of data. The activities can easily be integrated into GLOBE teaching or training sessions.
The toolkit covers the four Earth spheres: Atmosphere, Hydrosphere, Biosphere, and Pedosphere. The activities have been selected based on the examples from teachers/trainers who have expertise in GLOBE, and do data analysis and interpretation as a part of their classroom practice. Each activity takes approximately 15-30 minutes.
The toolkit is intended for GLOBE teachers who want to introduce their students to Learning Activities & data literacy skills at a beginner's level -suitable for elementary to high school students. Trainers can also use the activities during GLOBE teacher training to showcase the potential of enhancing student skills by using GLOBE data.
These activities are primarily designed for classroom use; thus, no specific GLOBE measurement tools or practical measurement skills are required. While a basic understanding of GLOBE measurements is helpful, extensive knowledge of the activity's topic is not necessary.
