In episode 66 of America Adapts, Doug Parsons talks with Kate Bishop Williams at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. Kate is a lecturer at the University and Waterloo and she used an America Adapts episode, "Deconstructing a Climate Change Skeptic" as part of her class curricula. Kate discusses why she chose this episode to use a tool to teach her students effective climate communication. Doug and Kate also discuss open access and the value of podcasts as a learning tool in the classroom. Doug speaks with two of the students enrolled in Kate's class and gets their feedback on what they learned from the Marc Morano episode (skeptic) and their impressions of using a podcast in the classroom. This and much more!
