RiverWebs in the classroom

RiverWebs is a powerful story that demonstrates how a curious youngster can develop into a world renowned scientist, and shows how scientists work together to build questions and expand knowledge. RiverWebs is a great educational tool for high school and college teachers covering subjects such as:

• River, fish, & food web ecology
• Scientific inquiry, method, & experimentation
• Conservation biology (invasive species & habitat loss)

Check out a few sample educational sequences, and experience RiverWebs personal and visual approach to communicating ecological knowledge. Indeed, RiverWebs greatest educational strength is that it presents scientific knowledge within the lives of scientists, which allows an intimate and seldom-seen perspective of how science works.
