Climate Course AP Pathways
OER PROJECT: CLIMATE POST-AP PATHWAYSLooking for a meaningful way to engage your students after the AP exam? OER Project: Climate offers flexible, weeks-long pathways designed to fit your available time while helping students think critically, grapple with big questions, and explore the future through a solutions-oriented lens.Climate Change OverviewThis overview equips your students with the must-know facts about climate change, bringing its causes, impacts, and solutions to life while empowering them to join the climate conversation with confidence.Climate Action ProjectThese project-based experiences give students multiple ways to explore climate change. Let them choose a project, or tackle one together as a class.Environmental ScienceContinue exploring the science behind climate change and the complex relationships between human systems and the natural world, in this post-exam study. Students use their environmental-science skills to investigate how human activities impact Earth’s systems—and how those changes affect ecosystems, resources, and human populationsHuman GeographyUse human-geography skills to investigate how human actions drive environmental change—and, conversely, how those changes shape resource allocation, population migration, and adaptation.World HistoryStudents will use historical thinking skills to examine how environmental changes have influenced societies over time—and how human actions have, in turn, shaped the environment. What can the story of our planet’s past teach us about the choices we face today and the future we hope to build?US GovernmentThis pathway introduces key policies, agreements, and challenges—showing how decisions at local, national, and global levels shape our future. Students will build the knowledge and confidence to engage thoughtfully in discussions about climate solutions and governance.
