The document outlines a project where students from two schools collaborate to learn about global warming. The project involves students exchanging 4 informational emails to discuss their understanding and research on global warming. As a culminating activity, students create an advocacy presentation and send concluding emails to their partners to share what they have learned and how they intend to apply it. Teachers will evaluate the presentations and monitor the email exchanges.
