Lesson Plan - Urban Sprawl, Center For Urban Resilience
Lesson Plan - Urban Sprawl, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 02: Land Use
The purpose of this lesson is for students to explore urban sprawl. They will first analyze urban growth patterns at the national level and then compare the density changes associated with various urban areas in the United States. Finally, they will research information about their own metropolitan area to conclude if it is currently contributing to urban sprawl and suggest how land use policies may have contributed to its current state.

Module 02: Land Use
Students will then consider a case study of a city that is planning for decreasing density. The ecological services model will be used to better understand the city’s approach to land use policies. Students will explore habitat fragmentation in order to explore different factors that influence species survival.

Lesson Plan - Garbage And The Impact Of Scale, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 04: Hazardous Waste
The main purpose of this lesson is to introduce garbage by way of exploring the concept of scale. The lesson begins by having students define garbage. Students will then think about their own garbage production. Their individual production will then be used to estimate garbage production at different spatial scales. In an optional activity, students can also explore how garbage and its management have changed over time.

Lesson Plan - Where Does Our Garbage Go?, Center For Urban Resilience
Module 04: Hazardous Waste
In this lesson, students will explore what happens to garbage after it is thrown away. The first activity looks at the garbage itself. Garbage will be classified as either biodegradable or not, and connected to the principle of the conservation of matter. The second activity concerns garbage disposal methods. Students will participate in a jigsaw activity where they learn about one garbage disposal system, and then will teach their peers about the different systems. The focus will be on the advantages and disadvantages of each method. The third activity is a debate which shows that garbage disposal issues can disproportionately …
