How to teach climate change without increasing learners’ eco-anxiety? Come to learn how you can challenge students to think critically and act in everyday life to solve climate change and give them purpose and drive for learning through play.

With a student’s hat on, experience a novel, gamified STEM program - League for Green Leaders. Play online interactive games to get hands-on experience on ecosystems and climate change, earn points and badges and progress in the program by completing both online and offline activities, and compete for the top positions of the CO2 saving leaderboard by tracking our carbon footprints in the real world. Feel the engagement students can get from a gamified healthy competition, and get inspired for hands-on experiential learning on climate change. Walk away with a detailed Lesson Plan associated with the classroom-ready program that you can use for your classroom next year.
