This activity is proposed as the conclusion of an instructional sequence on "Climate Change." To consolidate the content, this activity involves creating informative materials in the form of a brochure, pamphlet, leaflet, blog post, social media post, or newspaper/magazine article.
The content focuses on actions that humans could take to help reduce the exacerbation of environmental impacts discussed in the other activities, such as global warming, greenhouse effect, and climate change, which are directly related to human activities like deforestation, burning fossil fuels, waste decomposition, industrial production increase, and wildfires. The chosen text genre aims to encourage students to summarize what they have learned and express their main reflections in a way that motivates the reader to change their behavior or spread ideas and opinions. The activity is best utilized when done in groups, promoting discussion and idea exchange among students.
