Incorporating Data Analysis into Undergraduate Courses: A Case Study in Three Acts Rachel O’Brien, Allegheny College Preparing for an Academic Career in Geosciences Workshop: Summer 2011

Title: Water and the Earth Organized into three units, each based on a research question. H 2 0 & N budgets: increasing spatial scale; increasing complexity in each unit Combination of hands-on and online data sources used in the course Case study: Freshman seminar

Unit #1:What is a water budget? Local watershed (10 -1 km 2 )

What is a water budget?

Unit #2: What happens to water and N budgets when a forest is clear cut? NH watershed (10 km 2 )

What happens to water and N budgets when a forest is clear cut?

Unit #3: What is causing the “Dead Zone” in the Gulf of Mexico? Mississippi River watershed (10 6 km 2 )

What is causing the “Dead Zone” in the Gulf of Mexico?
