  8. The Big Picture Putting the Pieces Together

  9. Clarification • Facts are important when piecing together a complex picture of Global Environmental Change • When preparing for the final, do prepare your facts http://www.murrayusers.sa.gov.au/RMUUC-OldVersion/images/just_the_facts.GIF

  10. Clarification • However, if while you are taking the final and you realize that you need a partially remembered fact, then you may qualify an approximate fact • Don’t use “that” as an excuse not to put the pieces together http://www.articulate.com/rapid-elearning/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/owl.gif

  11. Misconceptions About Science • The role of science is to elucidate the underlying mechanisms to natural phenomena • Scientists primarily work in very narrow fields • When scientists draw conclusions, it is scrutinized, argued, and debated before it is published • Each group of scientists has a very small piece of the puzzle

  13. Who Implements Change? • Politicians • Scientists do debate on how ineffectual we are in making fundamental changes to our world • It is frustrating to present our findings and conclusions to be ignored http://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/2009/images/01/22/gal.obama.oval.office.jpg

  14. What Motivates Politicians? • YOU! • if you express your opinion to your government representatives • If you don’t, then our officials will only hear those who are expressing their opinions – lobbyists, big business, and vocal voters http://photos.upi.com/story/t/09cafdbf5fb51c720460a7266b1a7f16/Obama_shown_jacket-free_in_the_Oval_Office.jpg

  15. Major Facts • Cosmic • Earth’s place in space • Planetary • Dynamic planet • Chemistry • Tells the story • The Past • What has happened • Models for the Future http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/0304/bluemarble2k_big.jpg

  16. Science is consensus – meaning the majority of scientists agree – The overwhelming majority of climatologists agree Are they biased? Who are the dissenters? Primarily work with the sun, solar radiation, or in conjunction with energy Are they biased? Remember

  17. Concept Map Natural Anthropogenic Humanitarian Concerns Factoids • Start with your main theme “Global Warming” • Brainstorm all your ideas – list everything • Weekly readings • Class lecture • Class labs and activities • Mentor sessions • Presentations • Political Action • Cost • Poor nations

  18. Concept Map • Beginning your map • Start with “Global Warming” • Next, connect the major categories • Our example: • Natural • Anthropogenic • Humanitarian concerns • Factoids http://www.btinternet.com/~n.j.f/Y7science/gwescola/gwconmap.html

  19. Concept Map • Organizing all the details • Add all the details • Shuffle around until they make the most sense • Of course, I use index cards • Finalize organization • Connect with lines http://www.beautifulsystems.org/images/taskboard_mpd.jpg
