Citizen Science in Cyberspace | Cyberchase
Gunk is falling from the sky on sites all across Cyberspace, but nobody knows where it is coming from! Discover how the CyberSquad enlists citizen scientists to help solve the problem in these videos from Cyberchase: Space Waste Odyssey. This resource teaches students about citizen science and helps them learn the importance of proper trash disposal. Support materials are available, including classroom activities, student handouts, and vocabulary.
The “Space Waste Odyssey” continues in a new learning game in which kids themselves become part of the massive clean-up effort in Cyberspace. While traveling across cybersites and navigating through junk-storms to collect trash, players will learn how to dispose of waste by sorting it into containers for reuse, recycling, compost and landfill. The game has 10 levels, bonus content and a customizable control panel with accessibility features for players of all abilities.
