This hands-on course will prepare teachers to take advantage of the outdoor classroom and meet many of the state science curriculum frameworks. Instructors provide materials and excellent background knowledge in their area of expertise. The course will provide science educators and other interested individuals (watershed association, leaders, conservation commissioners) with an understanding of watershed ecology. Participants will receive a collection of outdoor and classroom activities/study guides that tie together the watershed concept for their students. Topics include wetland ecology, stream study and lake ecology, groundwater, plant communities, forest ecology, estuarine and marine ecology, and aquatic resource management. Each day will include a classroom and field component.
