Melissa Grinley, Seattle Community College-North Campus
In this two-part activity, students learn the psychology of motivation and goal-setting, and apply it to an action plan for civic engagement that addresses food insecurity caused by climate change impacts. They carry out a civic action that addresses a climate justice issue, and reflect on how motivation supports their action and how social influence and persuasion connect to their experience of taking action.
