No Idling At School

Elementary, Middle, Secondary

Description

  • After learning about the negative effects of vehicle idling, students monitor traffic at their school to determine if idling is an important local issue.
  • Students analyze their data and assuming idling is an issue, document their findings through movie shorts or a photography project in an effort to educate the school community and help bring about behavioural change.
  • Once projects are ready to go, students organize a  showing of their work and later try to determine the effectiveness of their message on their audience.
