Instructions overview:

STEM Ginger Education is running monthly projects: The Environmental Warriors. Children from different countries around the globe can take part:

• Do task A, task B, task C and/or task D. Each task requires different amounts of input and output: Task A is simple, task B involves conducting surveys or questionnaires, task C is based on an NGO’s work and task D requires a lot of learner autonomy.
• Post up findings.
• Find out about other groups’ projects in the Environmental Warrior’s magazine.
• Learn about each other: be inquisitive and ask questions in the forum.
• Let us know about your favourite project and say why you like it.

This task is not too demanding cognitively and can easily be adapted for various learners. It involves just a little English (e.g. drawing a picture, writing a few sentences) and is a simple, thought-provoking activity about the project of the month.

This task requires conducting surveys, interviews, drawing graphs and finding out data and/or opinions about the project of the month. Various skills are practised: communicative, presentation, hypothesising, concluding.

This task involves finding out more around the topic  of the month. It often involves exploration of work done by NGOs and environmental organisations, e.g. WWF, Zooniverse, IUCN, Practical Action.

This task requires much more autonomy, critical thinking and creativity. It is a project that the learners decide how to approach and how to present their findings.
