Advancing Climate Literacy through investment in Pre-Service Educators (ACLIPSE)

Provide inservice teachers, pre-service faculty and their students with opportunities to:

• Develop in-depth content knowledge of climate science and climate change, specifically focused on sea level rise, greenhouse effect, carbon cycle, and ocean acidification.
• Be able to use an NGSS-aligned, three dimensional approach to teaching.
• Develop necessary skills to work with real-time data and use data in authentic ways to foster student-led inquiry.

The materials were developed by the Lawrence Hall of Science, Rutgers University and Padilla Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, with funding from NOAA’s Environmental Literacy Grants.
