Spoilers for anyone attending my webinar tonight but I love talking about how current events can be used as inspiration for super-curricular activity to explore your subject, and today is a prime example! Why not have a search through the #EarthDay

While you might think that this is only relevant for those subjects that directly deal with climate change, like Geography, there& #39;s actually plenty out there for other subjects!
Computer Scientists might like to look at the links between Artificial Intelligence and climate change, at https://www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/article/artificial-intelligence-climate-change,">https://www.nationalgeographic.com/environme... or look into how machine learning can map climate change predictions.
Economists might like to think about the relationship between sustainability and business - how does it affect different business models? What is a & #39;circular economy& #39;? https://www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine/article/how-a-circular-economy-could-save-the-world-feature">https://www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine/...
For any budding Art Historians, lots of museums have been tweeting today about how nature has inspired artists throughout the centuries! I particularly enjoyed @vangoghmuseum& #39;s page here on & #39;Nature and the Artist& #39; https://www.vangoghmuseum.nl/en/stories/nature-and-the-artist">https://www.vangoghmuseum.nl/en/storie...
The list goes on, and using things like this as inspiration for your super-curricular engagement can be really fun as a way to delve deeper into topics you& #39;re already interested in, or discover new areas of research you& #39;d never thought of before.
I& #39;ll be chatting about this and other current events in our & #39;Study Skills and Super Curriculars& #39; webinar tonight at 5pm - if you& #39;d like to sign up to the programme to attend live or watch the recording, head to https://www.joh.cam.ac.uk/link-area-webinar-programme">https://www.joh.cam.ac.uk/link-area...
