How do Educators/Student Teams sign up and get involved?
Sign-up is done via our #ChangeTheNow website where Educators will set up a Team Profile for their class. This will give you access to all the #ChangeTheNow resources, instructions and communicate your progress as your team ‘unlocks’ each stage of the process.

If I am a teacher- how does this work for me? Are my students in teams?
As an educator you can participate in several ways.
- If you are an elementary teacher you will register your full class as one team.
- If you are a high school teacher you can determine if you want to register your class as one team or encourage your students to register as individual teams as part of project-based learning or community service learning opportunity.
- If you faculty at a post-secondary institution you will want to encourage your students to register as individual teams to complete as part of their course project work.
