Engaging Students in Interdisciplinary Climate Education

This webinar was hosted on edWeb.net.

In our interconnected world, climate change affects all of us. Within K-12 education, 80 percent of administrators and teachers want to teach about climate change but do not feel knowledgeable enough to do so. If educators are equipped to teach about climate change, they can inspire the next generation to take climate action.

Join CFR Education from the Council on Foreign Relations think tank for a conversation with a K-12 expert on climate education, an award-winning climate educator and administrator, and the head of teaching and learning at CFR Education to discuss how teaching about climate change is central to preparing students to be informed citizens in our connected world. 

In this edWebinar, you will learn:

• Best practices for seamlessly integrating climate education into different subject areas
• Tips and tricks for creating effective lessons that empower students to take action against climate change
• Examples from the classroom 
• FREE, new, non-partisan resources that provide middle and high school students and teachers with tools on climate change and its implications on global issues and foreign policy

This edWebinar will greatly benefit middle and high school social studies, science, ELA, and math educators interested in climate education. Watch the recording to earn a CE certificate.
