Science, Mathematics
& Technology
Students use scientific protocols, mathematics and technology when learning scientific research methodologies and analyzing data sets. The GLOBE investigation areas include Earth science and biology topics in atmosphere/climate, hydrology, soil, land cover, and phenology.
Examples of how GLOBE has been used in teaching:
Technology classes utilize GLOBE data sets to create elaborate charts, graphs and maps, comparing students' findings with other data from around the world and examining data critically. Students build weather stations in industrial technology classes, and agricultural education students can actively assist scientists and farmers in the field to better track environmental events affecting crop production.
