New challenge for schools: "Be a scientist! Mapping climate change at seas & coast"

The Education for Climate Coalition and the European Atlas of the Seas are inviting schools to take part in a new challenge, "Be a scientist! Mapping climate change at seas & coast".

This challenge takes you on a scientific wave ride:

Become familiar | concept experience

1. Let's play a boat race within the European Atlas of the Seas to immerse ourselves.

2. Let's re-play - you have the opportunity to play and repeat the boat race in class in a challenge against other classes to reflect playfully on issues of marine geography and environmental sustainability.

Experiment | develop

3. Let's create our own map collectively and select the topic the map shall cover around climate change

4. Let's be scientists - What data do we need for this topic map and how can we collect it (tools & measurement?)

Explore | field work

5. Let's explore, collect and report to bring together insights for our map!

6. Let's create the community map based on the reported data - and re-play!

We are looking for 10 teachers as volunteers who would love taking their classroom on a wild science ride.

Interested? Make sure that you enroll under the conditions that you :

• are able to join the online preparation workshop on 10 June 2022;
• are willing to enter the boat race challenge online on 21 June 2022 June in the morning with your class.
