New Course Development—Climate Change Science

I appreciated this experience as it gave me the necessary incentive to devote a large chunk of time to really figuring out not only the overall scope and sequence of my new course, but also the time to dive a bit more deeply into the actual source material that I will be using and some of the current research on climate change. It did make me realize that there is a whole lot of bad and inflammatory information out there about climate science so I now have some better strategies and ideas as to how to help students to deal with the overwhelming amount of ideas and information (some of it bad) that is out there.
