eCards

Green Learning Program

Secondary, Middle

Description

eCards is an environmental education and advocacy tool that aims to empower students to act for the climate by learning about environmental issues, creating informed messages, and acting on them. The digital platform encourages students to become active citizens and use their voice to act for the climate by learning about environmental issues. 

 Students will:

  • select and research a topic that they are passionate about
  • use the eCard worksheet to create and design their message
  • get feedback on their ecard from their teacher or peers
  • submit and send their ecard to their chosen decision-maker
The Topic Resource Center that supports the research phase of the project was written specifically for grade 7-12 learners. With educator support to guide the process and learning of younger grades, elementary school students can also use eCards with success.
By sending an eCard to a decision maker, students express what they have learned through their research and what matters most to them. Through art and writing, eCards supports environmental education and advocates for students to take meaningful, collective action. An excellent tool to empower young people to make a difference.

Recommendation of how and where to use it

The eCards program provides learning opportunities for students in all grades with some adaptations but was originally designed for students in grades 7-12. The activity allows for student choice and creativity and includes all elements necessary for learning. This resource explicitly teaches students to communicate information and their ideas while acting for the climate. 

The program is a fairly tech-dependent activity; adaptations are provided if the school has limited technology tools.

Other resources are provided for the teacher and the students to support the research component. The project covers many outcomes in many disciplines.
