This site is the public class site for Cathie LeBlanc’s section of Plymouth State University’s Tackling a Wicked Problem (IS1115) course.
Cathie LeBlanc is a Professor of Digital Media in the Communication and Media Studies discipline at Plymouth State University. She is the instructor of this section of IS1115. She also serves as Coordinator of General Education. Her web site is https://cathieleblanc.com
In this class, students use a collaborative project development process to reach outside the classroom to address some aspect of a wicked problem. During this project process, students focus on the development and practice of the General Education Habits of Mind. The course culminates in a public event at which students share their reflections on their learning.
Climate change is the catch-all term for significant long-term changes in the expected patterns for average weather in a region. Scientists do not dispute the fact that the climate change currently occurring on Earth is a rise in average temperatures. The scientific debate, if there is any, concerns the cause of this rise but much evidence indicates that the largest cause is human activity. In this class, we will learn about the causes and effects of our current climate change and undertake projects to impact this crisis.
