Selected GLOBE protocols and learning activities which support some aspect of the investigation of scale, proportion and quantity are outlined.

Students learn how to estimate the "energy efficiency" of photosynthesis, or the amount of energy that plants absorb for any given location on Earth. This is the ratio of the amount of energy stored to the amount of light energy absorbed and is used to evaluate and model photosynthesis efficiency.

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

GLOBE protocols and learning activities that complement exploration of Earth's Energy Budget are outlined.
