Cinzia Cervato, Professor, Geological and Atmospheric Sciences

Cinzia describes her use of ThinkSpace (video).

Cinzia found that her students had a hard time grasping fully the concepts about understanding atmospheric carbon dioxide budgets and how these affect future predictions of climate change. She had been using interactive simulations to help students see the relationships between inflow, outflow, and a reservoir. The simulations alone weren't moving students to a deeper understanding of the underlying concepts. See how Cinza has used ThinkSpace to combine the simulations and a series of questions so that students work through the concepts in a variety of context they are already familiar with.
