Teaching The Future is based on the need to tackle the climate emergency and ecological crisis. This action was initiated when students from around the world protested at national government’s lack of action on the climate crisis. One of their key demands was for suitable education to teach young people about the urgency, severity and scientific basis of the climate crisis.
To address these needs, the project has undertaken an analysis of curriculum and the potential for using scientific data in schools. It created a climate data dashboard taking scientific data of past and predicted future climate scenarios and presents it as a unique teaching resource. This gathers open climate data and scientific information which can be used by schools to support learning and teaching climate in schools. An online, open access teacher training course focuses on teaching about climate change and presents a toolkit of interesting and useful teaching resources.
