A cross curricular approach to teaching Year 8 students about Climate Change was developed based on the the model for a Meaningful Climate Change Education (Greer and Glackin, 2021). A number of different subjects including STEM, Humanities, Languages and Art taught students about issues relating to climate change and sustainability over a 3 week period.
The teaching sequence for each subject was developed through the lens of 'Alternative Visions of the Future', a core quality of a meaningful climate education. Students were asked to develop their own alternative vision of the future, explore it from multiple perspectives and present this at a research poster conference at the end of a 4 week period. The interdisciplinary nature of the project meant teachers, as well as students, were required to consider the central question from multiple perspectives and provided an important opportunity for teacher CPD.
