Collecting evidence of how Taiwan contribute to global warming

Using Bubbleshare, students work in groups and create a photo album where they will post the pictures they have taken/collected that show how the people in their country contribute to global warming.

Students leave an audio description of the photo. So, when we look at the album on slide mode, we would be able to see a photostory of the collected photos.
