Our Changing Climate: The Arctic Impact is an outreach program that entails delivery of hands-on, NASA-funded climate change curriculum to one rural Alaska community (K-12 students) over three different week long site visits. The program is designed to implement curriculum that has previously been determined to be effective in teaching climate change and the potential environmental impacts (Weiss, 2013) with the goal of increasing student understanding of climate change, its potential impacts, and related career opportunities.
