Global Environmental Issues Club

GEIC Members [|Jun] Sandra [|Steve] Terry Jason

Week of August 24

Class One Create your own wiki that includes: -Your name and Geic in the address

-Global Environmental Issues Club as a title (centered)

-A new title called "What is Global Climate Change?" and embed this [|video] under your title (both non centered but to the left)
Step One -Start thinking about how you will design your own picture that represents global climate change. What are some words that represent GCC? Can you list 10-15 from what you saw in your video. List them on your wiki under the video called "Possible search words for GCC". You will now search the net for a Royalty Free Picture that represents Global Warming and Climate change.

Step Two You will be designing or photographing something that represents global climate change and replacing your royalty free picture with your new image. You may use iPhoto and/or the digital camera. Images may be taken around the school or at home. These might give you some ideas

Week of August 31 What is your Big Idea? In the video, you will see differently styled cities. What would you do to design a neighbourhood of your choice? What would the following look like: --apartments --transportation --play areas --restaurants
