Hodder Education Blog Post: Our Climate as Concept
In this recent post as a guest on Hodder Education’s blog, I discuss the ways you can make a current hot topic into a concept for your Language A classroom and point to areas in my book that can help you to achieve this goal.
You can further connect a concept like this one to student CAS work through writing, volunteering, or activism and interdisciplinary work including biology, earth science, or geography as well as ethics in TOK. In this way, it can be a case study, a pedagogical method I can help you develop through workshops.
