Teaching Climate Change Across the Disciplines part of CAMEL:Activities
Drawing on arguments put forth in Mike Hulme's book Why We Disagree About Climate Change, we will examine sources of disagreement about climate change causes, consequences, and solutions and consider how they can inform our teaching. The discussion will be facilitated to produce a matrix (or framework) for teaching about climate change.
Language and Climate Change part of CAMEL:Activities
What kinds of language do different writers and speakers use to characterize climate change, and what does that language communicate to readers and listeners? We will read short selected writings and critique them—first individually, then in small groups, and finally in our large-group—in order to understand the power of language to change thinking and lead to action, including our own actions as teachers and learners.
