1 After Earth Saving Our Future Lessn Plan Fr Teachers: This lessn is designed fr use with several parts f this site: 1. Hme page and After Earth Saving the Future (link) 2. The Bidiversity Page (link) 3. The Mass Extinctin Page (link) 4. The Invasive Species Page(part f the Glbal Change page) (link) 5. The Increased CO2 Page(part f the Glbal Change page) (link) 6. Take Actin Page (link) Objectives: 1. Students will be able t define science and explain the difference between science fictin and science. 2. Students will be able t list and discuss at least three pssible cnsequences f glbal change t ecsystems. Backgrund fr teachers: In this lessn, students explre the difference between science and fictin. In an era f instant and unregulated infrmatin dispersal, sme news stries (and many web sites) are mre fictin than fact. Fr students, distinguishing between fact and fictin is ften very difficult. Belw are three useful pages n the UC Berkeley Understanding Science website, which ffers many excellent additinal teaching resurces The Understanding Science site facilitates reviewing the nature and prcess f science as an aid t recgnizing misinfrmatin, disinfrmatin, and pseudscience. Have students pay particular attentin t the interactive flw chart Hw Science Wrks. Stating the prblem, reviewing the research f thers (including peer review) and the validity f cmputer mdeling as experimental methdlgy are all part f the scientific methd. Help students understand hw each f these elements fits int the mdel.

2 Overview: Directins are cntained in the bdy f the student activity sheets. First student are asked t lk up sme terms. Yu may prvide these r have students lk them up n the web and agree n them. Secnd, students explre current discveries f new species. Next students (in grups r individually) will research the ancestrs f the three species that present challenges fr the characters in After Earth. This culd be a hmewrk assignment r a research based class assignment. Alternatively, three students culd d this research as extra credit and present their research. This wuld enable yu t skip the research cmpnent fr the class. When grups have finished researching their creatures, have them either present t the entire class r have them frm super grups that have all three animals represented, t share infrmatin. (Skip this if the whle class has seen presentatins n real animals.) After that, students view the vide After Earth Saving Our Future n the hmepage f the After Earth Science website. Nw students shuld cmpare and cntrast real adaptatins with imaginary adaptatins and imagine pssible drivers f thse changes. Last, students will cnsider sme science and predictins relating t different categries f glbal change, (Mass Extinctin, Bidiversity, Invasive Species, Increasing CO2), and present thse t each ther. They will als access the Take Actin webpage, and explre the actins that we as citizens might take. If yur class is larger than 4 grups f 3-5 students, yu can duble-assign categries, OR assign additinal sectins f the Glbal Change web pages: Nitrgen Depletin, Climate Averages and Weather Extremes, Greenhuse Effect r Glbal Climate System.

3 Pssible Frmative Assessments: 1. Final presentatins-- in class 2. In the film After Earth, peple ignred the warning signs f glbal change. Write a letter t ne f yur cngressinal delegates explaining yur cncerns abut current glbal changes. 3. Last questin is written as an essay What rle d yu think Science Fictin has in helping peple t make change in sciety? OR what rle d yu think the film After Earth can have in helping with glbal climate change?

4 After Earth: Saving Our Future Lessn Plan Objectives: 1. Students will be able t define science and explain the difference between science fictin and science. 2. Students will be able t list and discuss at least three pssible cnsequences f glbal change t ecsystems. "Seeing this gradatin and diversity f structure in ne small, intimately related grup f birds, ne might really fancy that frm an riginal paucity f birds in this archipelag, ne species had been taken and mdified fr different ends". Charles Darwin Vcabulary: Lk up each f these terms and write dwn the definitin: Adaptatin Ppulatin Habitat Bidiversity Mass Extinctin Natural Selectin Imagine Charles Darwin, as a yung man sailing abard HMS Beagle in the 1830 s, encuntering spectacular and amazing creatures entirely new t him. Did yu knw that we are STILL encuntering new species n earth? Try this: d a web search using the fllwing key wrds: new species discvered in (Or use anther year frm this decade.)

5 Chse three f thse articles t read and write a three-sentence summary fr each belw: Website: Title f article creature is alive nw r fssil? Summary: Website: Title f article Creature is alive nw r fssil? Summary: Website: Title f article Creature is alive nw r fssil? Summary: **The blend f Science and Fictin**

6 In the film After Earth, several creatures seem recgnizable, but are quite different frm thse we knw tday. This is ne f the delights f science fictin thinking abut what life might be like in the future, r if cnditins were just a bit different and making up a stry. Let s see hw sme f the stry and science g tgether. Write dwn three similarities and three differences between being Charles Darwin explring the wrld in 1832 AD and Kitai in the Film After Earth explring the Earth in 3072 AD. Cmparisn f a real explrer and a fictinal explrer: Charles and Kitai Similarities Differences Where wuld YOU like t explre t find a new creature? Hw likely d yu think yu wuld be t find ne?

7 As we humans struggle t make rder ut f chas, we make bservatins abut rganisms we see. We lk at individual characteristics f rganisms, ntice their use, and call these adaptatins. Cnsidering the adaptatins f plants and animals may be a useful way f rganizing life. T lk mre clsely at hw this might wrk, we ll start with yu. Humans have many adaptatins that make us gd at surviving. Fr example, we have what is called an ppsable thumb, which means that we can make a fist, r pick a piece f fruit frm a tree. We can als HOLD that same piece f fruit easily while we eat it. This adaptatin, therefre, is ne f the things that enables us t be successful in harvesting fruit (and ther fds) and feeding urselves. Let s lk mre clsely at three creatures that appear in the film but have realwrld cunterparts n earth right nw the Leech, the Califrnia Cndr and the Flying Snake. Yu will wrk with a grup f 2 r 3 classmates, and yur teacher will direct grup assignments. (Alternatively, yur teacher may have sme students present this material t the entire class.) Yu and yur grup shuld chse ne f the creatures t research using the Internet. 1. Leech (make it a lcal ne) Research and present: Structure and Functin Drawing--labeled, all parts! Hw it feeds--including hw it keeps bld frm its hst flwing What eats it? Definitin f parasite --hw des this wrd apply t this animal? Hw its hsts get rid f it Describe the habitat in which they live Relate their bdy adaptatins and their behavirs t survival in the place where they live. (Think abut the definitin yu have learned fr adaptatin and what that really means.) 2. Califrnia Cndr Research and present: Structure and Functin Drawing--labeled, all parts!! Hw it feeds--what des it eat? What eats it? Definitin f carrin --hw des this wrd apply t this animal? Describe the habitat in which they live Relate their bdy adaptatins and their behavirs t survival in the place where they live. (Think abut the definitin yu have learned fr adaptatin and what that really means.)

8 3. Flying Snake--frm Asia Research and present: Structure and Functin Drawing--labeled, all parts!! Hw it feeds--what des it eat? What eats it? Definitins f predatr ; tp carnivre --d these wrd apply t this animal? Describe the habitat in which they live Relate their bdy adaptatins and their behavirs t survival in the place where they live. (Think abut the definitin yu have learned fr adaptatin and what that really means.) Present the material abut yur animal t the ther tw grups in class. Take ntes n the infrmatin presented by the ther grups. What is the difference between Science and Fictin? Take a lk at the fllwing websites: Discuss at yur table which parts f this lab s far have been science, and which parts fictin? In the film, the three animals (abut which yu just presented scientific facts) have special rles because they have evlved new traits ver the time humans have been gne frm planet Earth. (Think: fact r fictin?) Visit the hmepage f After Earth Science and view After Earth: Saving Our Future What was ne thing yu liked abut the interactin between actr Jaden Smith and science cmmunicatr Dani Washingtn? Nw view the vide a secnd time and take ntes belw. Fr each creature what new adaptatins (r behavirs) are mentined? Leech

9 Califrnia Cndr Flying Snake Adaptatins are evlutinary respnses t envirnmental cnditins. Chse ne rganism listed abve and think abut the envirnmental cnditins that might have resulted in the new adaptatins discussed in the vide. Creature adaptatin r behavir (minimum acceptable: three) Write yur ideas in the chart belw: What envirnmental cnditin might have caused the creature t develp this adaptatin?

10 In the fictinal histry f After Earth, the ancestrs f Kitai (Jaden Smith) and Cypher (Will Smith) ignred the warning signs f glbal change. Nw cnsider sme real-wrld scientific evidence. Divide the class int grups. Each grup will receive a webpage t explre and reprt back t the class. Mass Extinctin, Bidiversity, Invasive Species, Increasing CO2. (If yur class is larger than fur grups, see teacher directins) Enter the link t the webpage that yu and yur grup have been assigned. Take ntes belw. Nw lk back at the Ecsystem Services Graphic lcated n the Bidiversity Page. Discuss as a grup: which eclgical services are mst directly related t the infrmatin yu just read and wrte dwn abve? List the Eclgical Services affected by yur issue belw. Fr each, tell HOW it is being affected.

11 Prepare t present the facts frm yur research t the rest f the class. Yu and yur grup will design an interview t present yur infrmatin in a skit. Yu can assume the rles f scientists, reprters, natural resurce managers and gvernment fficials as needed. With yur grup, cnsider the utline belw: What is the name f this phenmenn (It might be the title f the website yu visited)? Wh is causing this and wh (r what) is affected? Where is it happening? When is it happening? Why is it happening? Hw might it interfere with eclgical services? Nw visit the After Earth Take Actin web page and answer these questins: Read the first tw paragraphs. Discuss this sentence, which appears in the secnd paragraph, with yur grup: Safeguarding glbal ecsystem services must g hand in hand with ending glbal pverty r neither effrt can succeed. Hw des glbal pverty factr int glbal climate change? The first sentence n the Take Actin page states The mst imprtant actin yu can take in the face f glbal change is simple: d smething! What actins can we (the public/regular peple) take?? (Think bth small and big actins. Think daily, mnthly and yearly. Think this year and next year and the year after that.) Include these recmmendatins in yur reprt/presentatin t the class. After the class has seen all the presentatins f the different grups: Discuss r write the answer t this questin: What rle d yu think science fictin can have in helping peple make changes in sciety?
