Check out the Arctic and Earth SIGNs video to explore how climate models are used in climate change research.

This video is a resource that can be used alongside any activity that involves creating and developing questions. While the video focuses on questions about trees, the basic principles are necessary for asking scientific questions. 

This lesson walks students through the use of Landsat false-color imagery and identification of different land cover features using these as models.

This video provides tips for teachers on helping students make sense of data to help them understand and work with data. It is based on the work of Kristin Hunter-Thomson of Dataspire.org and uses data from the My NASA Data Earth System Data Explorer.
