Testing the first version of learning materials addressing climate change understanding

In the first semester of the academic year 2023/2024, teacher students from four German-speaking Universities (TU Dresden, RUB Bochum, JKU Linz and University of Innsbruck) participated in the implementation of the first version of our learning materials designed to foster conceptual understanding. We call these materials Tutorials in Climate Change. They will be available here on the website under “Resources” by the end of 2024.

We were delighted with the constructive feedback from our students and are highly motivated to revise the tutorials! Further implementations at KU Leuven and at various professional development workshops for teachers are coming up soon. Stay tuned for updates about our learning materials, workshops and other ENGAGING-project-resources!
