Nanette I. Marcum-Dietrich; Meredith Bruozas; Rachel Becker-Klein; Emily Hoffman; Carolyn Staudt – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2024
The Precipitating Change Project was a 5-year development, implementation, and research study of an innovative 4-week middle school curricular unit in computational weather forecasting that integrates students' learning and use of meteorology and computational thinking (CT) concepts and practices. The project produced a list of CT skills and…

Meyer, Steve – Science Activities: Classroom Projects and Curriculum Ideas, 2006
A two-dimensional weather map is actually a physical representation of three-dimensional atmospheric conditions at a specific point in time. Abstract thinking is required to visualize this two-dimensional image in three-dimensional form. But once that visualization is accomplished, many of the meteorological concepts and processes conveyed by the…
