KQED will create sequenced digital media educational resources of interdisciplinary science content focusing on climate change, its effects, and current scientific research aimed at reducing our dependency on fossil fuels. The curriculum will address California state science standards for fourth through sixth grades and national standards for fifth through eighth grades. KQED’s content will examine how a changing climate affects the water cycle and the distribution of organisms in ecosystems. This grant supports middle school earth sciences curricula for grades four through eight, and its content will be distributed through station education portals as well as through PBS’s proposed Digital Learning Library (formerly EDCAR).
