Presenting Results

Seeing the Big Picture As the year progresses, the relevance of their studies becomes more apparent to the students. New applications and experiences enrich their understanding: discussion of watersheds ecological impact concerns ecosystem energy flow nutrient cycles the water cycle stream study responsibility

Stream Studies

Costs Each set-up costs approximately $1,000, which includes 55 Gallon tank Chiller Filters, etc.

What TU Provides phone and e-mail support website resources: FAQ, tips, links, data-sharing start-up information for teachers and chapters support in aligning with standards and curricula activity ideas for class lessons and field trips aid in utilizing the TIC network brochures and materials for program promotion
