• This online museum exhibit uses text, photographs, interactive 3-D models, virtual reality capability, interactive maps, timelines, presentations, infographics, and animations to teach students about climate change.
• Students can work their way through sections on climate history, climate proxies, the greenhouse effect, climate impacts, and climate solutions.

Positives

• This online exhibit is engaging and well-designed.
• The exhibit is accessible for students who do not know much about climate change, but also detailed enough to appeal to students who have a broad knowledge of the subject.
  

Additional Prerequisites

• Teachers should be aware that the Share section allows students to submit a response about what climate change means to them, along with their first and last name. Students under 13 years old must supply a guardian's email address to submit a response.

Differentiation

• This resource is well suited for self-paced learning. Using their own devices, students can work their way through each section and then write a short paragraph about something in the exhibit that they already knew about and something they learned from the exhibit.
• Science teachers could use each of the sections individually to teach about a specific topic (e.g., climate proxies, the greenhouse effect). 
• Other resources on this topic include this interactive textbook lesson on climate history, this lesson on the basics of Earth's climate and atmosphere, and this video on climate solutions.
