Positives
- This resource would work well for virtual learning or in schools where students are one-to-one with devices.
- This is a well-constructed interactive. By clicking on various parts of the cycle, the user can either view a short video about the topic or a static diagram with more information.
Additional Prerequisites
- Students can click the underlined words in the transcript to view the definition.
- A transcript of the carbon cycle is located below the interactive diagram.
Differentiation
- Before using this resource, students could make a list of all the components of the carbon cycle and label them as processes or carbon sinks. After using the interactive diagram, students could update their lists.
- In small groups, students could identify which parts of the carbon cycle have been impacted by humans and how these impacts have damaged the cycle.
- Other resources on this topic include this TED-Ed video on the carbon cycle, this carbon cycle game, and this video on how humans have disrupted the carbon cycle.
