Teaching Tips

  • Connections to climate change will need to be strengthened by the educator as it is sometimes less apparent in the video.
  • There are supporting slides and fact sheets on the website referenced at the end of the video. Consider using the fact sheets as a brainstorming tool or Q-focus in a QFT (question formulation technique). Develop a small group activity using the video as the basis for the discussion.
  • A project may include having students (in pairs/groups) create their own live animation videos to explain a scientific concept. Assign student roles (one person draws, one speaks, one films; all write script together).

About the Content

  • This video emphasizes the need to consider the meaning of resilience for all stakeholders and identifying shared traditions and values related to resilience and the community.
  • This video uses analogy to describe the importance of multiple viewpoints, and the multiple definitions of resilience.
  • Passed initial science review - expert science review pending.

About the Pedagogy

  • Students will understand that resilience has multiple definitions and that many diverse voices are needed to develop resilience to climate change.
  • The speed of speech and vocabulary may be challenging for ELL students, but is somewhat mitigated by animations. It may take multiple viewings and discussion for ELL students to grasp its content.
  • The video is highly engaging due to "live" drawing and concepts.
