The Ecosystem Impacts of Oil and Gas Inputs to the Gulf (ECOGIG) consortium worked with the Georgia Institute of Technology Center for Education Integrating Science, Mathematics, and Computing (CEISMC) to develop and test three middle school teaching modules.
The modules developed are:
– (7th Grade) Life Science – Data Visualization: “Under the Sea” Deep Sea Ecosystems Challenge
– (7th Grade) Life Science – Experimental Design: “Oil Spill Drill” Oil Spill Challenge
– (8th Grade) Physical Science – Experimental Design: “Ocean Blizzard” Marine Snow Challenge
The modules are available upon request from the CEISMC website: https://ampitup.gatech.edu/curricula/ms/science.
