Wetlands Ecology projects                          

Projects (250 pts)

Teams of 3-4 students will develop presentations and write a project report. Teams will act as consultants hired to generate a report and make recommendations about a local project or problem involving wetlands.

Teams will have 30 minutes for their presentations with 5 minutes for questions and answers. All team members must take part in the presentation. Teams will be graded by how well their presentation describes the problem, their background research, their findings, and recommendations.

In addition, each team will write a 10 - 15 page project report, collaborating on writing some sections while other sections will be primarily written by one team member.

See the general instructions for further details and due dates. Due dates mean that the item is due at the beginning of class on that date.
