    Public Service Announcement (PSA) About Climate Change (Higher Ed) part of Climate Education in an Age of Media:Use Student Media Production:Activities
    Juliette Rooney-Varga, University of Massachusetts-Lowell
    Producing a PSA is an ideal culminating project for an interdisciplinary course on climate change and related topics. The PSA assignment requires high-level synthesis of content and, through it, students learn first-hand about the challenges of communicating about climate change to a general audience in a compelling way. The assignment offers the opportunity for students to engage with the material, consider what they want society to understand or do, use creativity and twenty-first century technology and communication tools, and become empowered to enter societal discourse about climate change.
