About this Collection
NASA support for ESSEA under the Global Climate Change Education (GCCE) program is enabling IGES to develop shared educational resources - including modules and courses - that are based on NASA climate science and data.
The NASA GCCE ESSEA modules are designed for teachers who are taking ESSEA courses. Teachers can also use the GCCE ESSEA course modules with their students. Print them out, or have your students read them online. They have situations, connections to the standards, resources and sample investigations. Unless a module is labeled K-4, you can adapt it for middle and high school students..
Go to How to Use this Site with K-12 Students for more detailed suggestions. The section entitled, Inquiry Strategies to Use in Your Classroom may also be helpful to you in using the modules with your students.
