Learners will explore the causes and effects of space weather and how NASA studies it.
In this interactive, students will learn the basics of space weather by engaging in a short interactive which introduces key terms: space weather, sunspot, solar flare, coronal mass ejection, and solar wind. Students will be able to identify the causes and hazards of space weather.
Learners will explore differences between weather on Earth and space weather and the hazards of each.
Students visit a NASA Website called "Eyes on the Earth" to view satellite missions in 3D circling the Earth and learn to navigate to specific satellites to learn about their capability of analyzing our changing planet and air quality.
Learners will build a 2D model of the Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) Spacecraft model.
Interpret the map, or model, to find patterns in the occurrence of tropical cyclones from 1842 through 2018.
Students interpret a double bar/column chart comparing the number of tropical cyclones in different locations.
Interpret a scatter plot to find patterns in the number of tropical cyclones from 1842 to 2018.
Learners will analyze and interpret a box plot and evaluate the spread of the data. Learners will compare it with a different visualization of the data to see how the two compare, discuss the limitations of the two types of data displays and formulate questions.
