Introduction
Have you ever seen trash on the streets or rivers filled with plastic? Or maybe you've noticed the weather getting hotter and hotter each year? These aren't just random things they're signs that our planet is in trouble.
In this WebQuest, you will take on the role of an Eco-Hero. You’ll team up with classmates to investigate real environmental problems and think of creative ways to raise awareness and help protect Mother Earth. Ready to make a difference?
Task
Your group will choose one major environmental issue like plastic pollution, deforestation, climate change, or water pollution.
You’ll research it, then create a campaign to raise awareness and offer simple, practical solutions. You can design a digital poster, a short video, or a social media-style post. At the end of the activity, you’ll share your work with the class.

Here’s what you need to do step by step:
-
Form a group of 3–4 classmates.
-
Pick one environmental issue from the list.
-
Assign roles (example: researcher, writer, designer, presenter).
-
Use the resources provided to gather information.
-
Create your campaign (poster, video, etc.) using tools like Canva, PowerPoint, or even TikTok (keep it school-appropriate).
-
Present your work to the class.
-
Submit your final project online or in print (as instructed).
