Special Education: Aquaponics and Urban Growing - Printable or Google

During this engaging research project, students will review and interact with the Twitter feed of an aquaponics association that educates about aquaponics, urban growth, and sustainability education. Students will consider aquaponics benefits, what is urban growth, and how does sustainability help reduce the human impact on the environment.

Use this activity guide to direct students to the current Twitter feed of an excellent Twitter account about tourism as a means of furthering social and environmental change.

The guide has them read through the feed and report important facts. Then there is a sharing activity, followed by a short essay reflective question.

They don't need Twitter accounts to do this activity. I also provide the Twitter research link directly on the student guide and list the account they are to search at the top as well.

Twitter keeps us up to date on the current status of things in the world and this lesson is meant to show students how to use Twitter in an academic way. It is also a chance for them to learn that situations in the world are ever-changing.

You can use this as a sub plan, homework assignment, or classwork.
