Video Learning Notes
This lesson guided students to develop and refine a quantitative model of carbon cycling among Earth's hydrosphere, atmosphere, geosphere, and biosphere. Through data analysis, model building, and scientific reasoning, students deepened their understanding of carbon reservoirs, fluxes, and feedback loops. They practiced revising models based on evidence, reflecting authentic scientific practice, and connected carbon cycling to broader environmental issues.
Learning Goals
- Explain how carbon cycles among the hydrosphere, atmosphere, geosphere, and biosphere using quantitative data.
- Develop and use a quantitative model to represent carbon cycling among Earth's spheres.
- Analyze and interpret data to support claims about carbon transfer and storage in different Earth systems.
- Revise models of carbon cycling based on evidence and peer feedback.
- Communicate scientific explanations about carbon cycling using quantitative reasoning.
