THIS RESOURCE IS FREE (AND EVERYTHING ELSE IN THIS TOPIC)
I believe it is our collective responsibility to deliver this topic with as much impact as possible, ensuring that students truly grasp the significance of human influences on ecosystems on an international scale. By giving students a voice to discuss these issues and empowering them to actively contribute to the creation of a sustainable future, they can start to inspire change in themselves, the people around them and (hopefully one day) the wider world.
✓ Engaging presentation
✓ Recaps previous learning
✓ Lots of short AFL tasks
✓ Exam question examples
