High School Environment Research

This high-interest WebQuest will get students thinking about the impact of climate change on other people. There is an article explaining that humans have been migrating because of climate-related issues for years. Then they will dig deeper by reading articles and answering questions about the more recent impact climate change has had on human migration. There are links to two articles; one with excellent graphics, questions for students to answer, answer sheets, a mini-poster, and a tip and suggestions sheet for the teacher.

Also available in Google Slides™.

This is a great project for APES or Biology! I used it for both, but for Biology I made some of the last tasks optional and changed some of the upper tasks to weigh a little bit more to balance it out to 100%. It includes the rubric, which is a checklist for the students and also for your grading convenience!

The students love it! It can be done individually or in pairs. It can be a gallery walk or presented to the class. I hope you and your students enjoy!

Here are the instructions: You will research a biome that you select from the proposed list. While researching your biome, you will learn about commonalities, locations, community interactions within it, and look at any environmental issues associated with the biome. The final part of your project will be a free-standing display on a poster board of all the information you gathered and you will be prepared to present this information to the class. Below is a rubric showing the research required for your display, and their point value. You will be presenting this to the class!

Do not simply “cut & paste” your information! It must be your own writing. Failure to use your own work is plagiarism!
