’59.5 Degrees South’ introduces students to how scientists use ‘Argos floats’ to record changes in ocean temperature and salinity – two key indicators that affirm human induced climate change.
Students read and discuss the Level 3 School Journal article ’59.5 Degrees South’ and then ‘think sustainably’ as they learn and explore deeper thinking about climate change in the context of oceanic signatures by sequentially working through the student task sheet. Potential solutions and a path forward are found through discovery, discussion and application in the learning process itself.
