Abstract
The lesson plan uses storytelling techniques via selected documentaries to teach about climate change. The whole lesson plan consists of three main parts.
First, students are asked to watch a selected documentary and fill out a related handout at home. To evoke students' motivation, the homework is followed up by an in-class discussion of climate change impacts on a local scale.
The whole problem is summarized and framed into a broader context during the second in-class lesson. All pedagogical techniques and materials, including the documentaries, were specifically chosen to foster students' geographical thinking and climate change impact awareness.
