Learning Goal: Students become familiar with the features of a climate model.

Summary: Conduct initial exploration of relationship between carbon dioxide and plant growth.
Teaching Strategies and Directions
Featured Resource — Carbon Temperature Model Interactive
While using the interactive, students read about scenarios, change variables, and see how they affect temperature and carbon storage.
Note: This interactive model relates CO2 to temperature. It is a bit complex. It could be used as a learning lab activity or as a starting point for a hands-on constructivist approach.

Featured Resource — Carbon Temperature Model Interactive

Global Carbon Budget 1960-2100

Type: Climate Model

Science Standards: See this page

Learning Goal: Use models to discover relationships between variables.

Summary: Students begin by reading about scenarios. They use the interactive model, change variables, such as forestation and deforestation rates, and observe how the changes affect Earth's temperature and carbon storage.
Students design their own experiment and communicate their results.

Teaching Strategies and Directions
Students use interactive models to construct experiments and generate data. They then describe how concentrations of CO2 are impacted by changes in land-use, such as deforestation and forestation.

Sample questions to use with this activity:
  1. Describe your findings with the Carbon Temperature Model interactive.
  2. What steps did you take to lower CO2 concentrations and subsequent temperature?
  3. Complete a challenge of your our design and then print your report.
