Exploring the Environment: Korean Enigma

Description:
ETE encourages students to collaborate to solve real-world problems dealing with modern environmental challenges. For each module students read background information and learn about their situation before they solve a problem. Read teacher pages before beginning.

The people and land of Korea, long united, were divided by war and politics some 50 years ago. In this module, students investigate how past history, present political ideology, and the natural environment have shaped the North and South Korea of today.
