Lesson Plan: Bird Biodiversity Data Collection (Day 2), Center For Urban Resilience

Module 06: Urban Biodiversity

In this lesson, students go outside to collect data for the second time to answer their research questions for their bird biodiversity study. In their field notes, students are asked to think about what factors might impact the bird biodiversity on their site in order to make connections to the event cards from the biodiversity game in Lesson 6.

Lesson Plan: Habitat Fragmentation And Species Survival, Center for Urban Resilience 2021 Loyola Marymount University and Loyola Law School

Lesson Plan: Habitat Fragmentation And Species Survival, Center For Urban Resilience

Module 06: Urban Biodiversity

The last two lessons explored how specific events impact biodiversity. This lesson adds to the concept that biodiversity is impacted by events. One such event is a change in land use. Habitat loss and fragmentation in urban settings impacts the survival of many species. Through this sequence of activities, students will find that the more connected and closer the habitat patches, the more likely the population is to survive. After exploring the online simulation, students will consider best practices for designing green space in their own urban area so that species are able to immigrate between the patches and increase …

Lesson Plan: Bird Biodiversity Data Collection (Day 3), Center For Urban Resilience

Module 06: Urban Biodiversity

This is the last lesson where students go outside to collect bird biodiversity data for their field study. In this lesson, students are asked to consider the fragmentation of their study site and the migration patterns of the birds in their site. Again, the goal is to connect to the in-class activities and encourage students to apply the science concepts covered in the classroom to their field study.

Lesson Plan: Analysis And Interpretation Bird Biodiversity Data, Center for Urban Resilience 2021 Loyola Marymount University and Loyola Law School

Lesson Plan: Analysis And Interpretation Bird Biodiversity Data, Center For Urban Resilience

Module 06: Urban Biodiversity

This lesson is the culminating field site-based lesson in which students analyze the data they have been collecting over the last couple of weeks. Students apply the various scientific concepts they have been learning about biodiversity to make sense of their own data. After analyzing their own data in groups, students present their findings to the entire class. As part of these presentations, the class will discuss the validity of the different groups’ claims and whether they are supported by the data collected from the field as well as the various science concepts they have been learning in class.

Data Spreadsheet - Mortality Rates Of Children In Urban Populations Around The World, Center For Urban Resilience

Module 05: Public Health & Water Quality

This lesson introduces students to the module about public health by getting them to consider what does it means for a country, city or neighborhood to be healthy", what factors impact the health of people and what unique challenges do cities face in terms of public health. The goal of the lesson is to get students to brainstorm ideas and begin to start thinking about this topic. The concepts in this lesson will be revisited throughout the module. Students analyze public health data from across the world. These data sets are used to introduce the driving question for the module …

Module 05: Public Health & Water Quality

In this module, you will be investigating the driving question – How can I make my neighborhood a healthier place to live? Before looking at your neighborhood, you will first look at some health data from across the world to think about what does it mean for an area to be “healthy” and what factors impact public health.

Lesson Plan: Choices And Health, Center for Urban Resilience 2021 Loyola Marymount University and Loyola Law School

Lesson Plan: Choices And Health, Center For Urban Resilience

Module 05: Public Health & Water Quality

The purpose of this lesson is to explore the evolution of human culture and its relation to health. Because overall population health is difficult to measure, statistics of life expectancy will be presented. Factors that influence life expectancy such as access to resources and technology as well as culture will be discussed. Students will also compare the weekly food consumption of different countries to explore how culture may play a role in health. Finally students will participate in an activity that has them reflect on their own choices and the possible influence of culture on those choices.
