Teaching Plans

Social Reconstructionism 

• A philosophy that emphasizes the need to address social questions and focused on making a change.
• Educational reconstruction emphasizes on empowering students to question the system.
• In the United States requires students to learn information based off of what the teachers tell them and do not encourage them to think about the real world.

How We Plan to Teach

As a group we intent to engage everyone with interesting facts along with the ones that may be hard to hear. Our presentation includes an interactive map that shows what the world would be like if the water level was increased by 216 feet. Our audience will be engaged and willing to learn about everything we throw at them. We hope to teach everyone about things they may not know about global warming. We intend to interest all types of learners with our presentation. 

Concept Chart

For our concept map we continued to look for new information while still using knowledge we already knew. We tried to continue our research in order to broaden our views on global warming. This is a basic way to explain global warming in order to inform people that may not know much about our subject. This is a fast and easy way to way for everyone to learn about an issue. This is to inform everyone so they realize the things we need to change.

Federal Government Steps In

Recent Event: Global Warming

Tuesday, October 29, 2013

There are currently 18 federal agencies investing their time into global warming. There is over 22.2 billion tax dollars going into global warming research. While other activities see half of that amount. Yes, global warming is an important issue in today's world but is it necessary to spend that much of our money? Obama just recently admitted that our country has moved beyond whether global warming is a threat or not, instead we should be focusing on what we can do to actually fix the problems at hand. You would think that by spending all this money on research that our government would be able to create a healthier environment. That’s just it our society is built on money and it cant solve all of our problems can it? We as humans need to take a stand and create a world where it is healthy and sustainable.
