The
Global Sun/Temperature Project
This collaborative project allows students to gather local temperature
and sunlight data during a specific week each semester. This information,
accompanying specific latitude and longitude descriptors of the location,
is submitted to the web site. The data from all participants is compiled
into a database from which the students may explore relationships between
average temperature and amount of sunlight and proximity to the equator.
Students' final reports are posted on the project web site.
