My NASA Data has recently released several new resources, StoryMaps, for use in educational settings.

Air, Water, Land, & Life: A Global Perspective
Students develop and test a hypothesis about how albedo affects temperature.
NASA visualizers take data – numbers, codes – and turn them into animations people can see and quickly understand.
Students will analyze and interpret maps of the average net atmospheric radiation to compare the flow of energy from the Sun toward Earth in different months and for cloudy versus clear days. Students will draw conclusions and support them with evidence.
Students explore positive feedback effects of changing albedo from melting Arctic sea ice.
Guided by the 5E model, this lesson allows students to work together to uncover how changes in sea ice extent in the Arctic and Antarctic regions are connected to Earth’s energy budget.
