The objective of the game is

This lesson uses the artwork of Alisa Singer to engage students to learn more about climate change, research, and data representation. Students will be asked to interpret figures created by OSU scientists, and reimagine them as abstract art pieces. This activity culminates with a flier campaign in which students post artwork around their community.

Students engage in activities related to plant domestication (plant breeding), and plant genetic modification. The goal is for students to learn that both of these methods include similar goals - developing safe and nutritious food more efficiently for a growing population, and are currently being used to improve the plants we grow for food.

Students will learn about Machine Learning, Algorithms, Computations, as they write code to make a PB&J sandwich and to move buttons across a grid.  These activities are used to introduce students to these foundational concepts in computer science and their use in Machine Learning.

This trio of lessons are designed to spark student curiosity and understanding of AI, so they may find motivation to continue their studies, finding the beauty and power in math to design their own futures.

What does it mean to go green? Students will learn about the green technologies aboard the RCRVs, and brainstorm opportunities for other working boats to incorporate environmentally friendly tech. Next, they will explore their own school buildings on an energy efficiency scavenger hunt. Finally, they will learn about organizing campaigns to raise awareness about climate justice.
