Description

Old VersionNew Version
1<p>How does a bald eagle population change over time at a winter migratory stopover and which factors influence its abundance?</p>  1<p>The Powerpoint presentation was adapted from the Guided Student approach introduction. It introduces the students to the following: why scientists study bald Eagles, the ecological question behind the study, and how and when the data were collected.</p>
2  2  
3<p>This activity has two different aspects to the learning style:</p>  3<p>The student proposal worksheet is partially filled out to include the question.</p>
4    
5<ul>    
6   <li>Guided Approach: Students will generate questions abut bald eagle numbers influenced by weather and food availability. &nbsp;Students will then use graphing software (JMP of Excel) to compile the data in a graphical form to answer their questions.</li>    
7   <li>Open-Ended Approach: Students will generate their own hypothesis of interest from the larger bald eagle data set. &nbsp;This approach is encouraged for upper division ecology students in conservation biology, wildlife management, or population ecology classes.</li>
