Working through the Eco Web
 |
Print out the images of the products and download the Eco Web. |
|
Place the pictures of the two cameras on a table at the front of the class where everyone can see them. |
|
Encourage general discussion about which is the most/least sustainable. Discuss different market needs. |
|
As the discussion progresses, give the students background information on the different products and see how their understanding of the products change. |
|
In groups or as a class, use the Eco Web to compare the different products. Assess the products, going through each part of the web in turn, and estimate how good or bad the product is in that area. |
|
When complete, join the dots and shade the inside area. |
|
Discuss focus areas to make products more sustainable. |
|
Collect feedback from students on which they felt was more sustainable. |
