Description

This student-led activity addresses the following essential question, “What considerations are imperative when planning on a piece of undeveloped land?” Students assume the roles of members of a land-use planning team and design a town while considering how to minimize habitat destruction, how to maintain high levels of biodiversity, and what to add to the town to improve the quality of life for its human residents. This activity encourages students to think both creatively and analytically. Students are tasked with presenting their final plans to their peers and compare their decisions with one another.
