Global Citizenship

Calling all budding animators and film-makers

Win a Flip Camera for your school

Learning and Teaching Scotland is currently developing a new Primary Climate Change website. It will bring together a series of web-based activities which will allow pupils at First and Second Stages to explore and learn about climate change, how it will affect them and what they can do about it.

We are looking to have some demonstration clips built into the site. These will include recording weather, the water cycle, movement of warm and cold air, and adaptations to change. We are challenging Secondary school pupils to come up with innovative and creative approaches to this.

The shorts can be up to a maximum of 1 min and can be shot on anything from a camera phone to home video or professional equipment, or can be done in animation.

Contributions must be emailed in or uploaded to the GLOW SDE group by 04 December 2009. All will be exhibited on the GLOW SDE group and the most suitable, from an educational point of view, will be incorporated into the Primary Climate Change website.

Flip cameras will be awarded to those schools whose clips are used on the Climate Change website.

For more information on the experiments and activities please contact Helen Winton, H.Winton@LTScotland.org.uk
