Make a mindmap or a web!

This activity invites you to explore the connections between human health impacts and environmental changes. Revisit your post from Footstep 1.

Look closely at your pictures and what you wrote. Choose one health impact that is related to something you noticed during your walk. Think about:   

Changes in land use, pollution, biodiversity.

Once you have chosen a health impact and an environmental change, do the following:

On a piece of paper or screen, write your health impact and environmental change in two separate circles. Make sure to leave space around them and between them for all the connections you’ll uncover!

• Step 1: Begin with the health impact circle. Start your web by thinking of examples and causes of this health impact.
• Step 2: Move to your environmental change circle. Begin this side of the web by thinking of features of the environmental change you chose. As you are creating your web note any questions that you have. You can either include your questions in your web or make a separate list of questions (As you explore your environmental change, you might find that you have new ideas about the health impact that you chose. Feel free to add them to your web!)
• Step 3: Now take a look at the two sides of your web. Just as you did as a whole class, begin to draw connections between the two sides.
• As you think about connections, you may ask yourself the following questions: What are some obvious connections? What are some surprising or hidden connections?
• It is important to post clear visuals of your webs, so others in your walking party can clearly see all the details of your work. Here are some tips: You can take multiple pictures of the different parts of your web or take a bigger picture of your web from a bit far away.

Good luck!
