Teaching Materials
Positives
- The interactive provides three different ways for students to visualize the data.
- The line graph and map are animated to illustrate change over time.
Additional Prerequisites
- Students should know how to read a data table, line graph, and global map.
- Teacher may need to provide background information on flaring.
Differentiation
- In math classes, this can be used as a practical application of the uses of line graphs.
- Physics classes could use this resource to highlight the negative impact of flaring and challenge students to find alternatives to this practice.
- Cross-curricular connections can be made with social studies and geography classes by exploring the similar characteristics of countries with low or high levels of emissions from flaring.
