Hi Ecologgers-As part of a Society of Wetlands Scientists wetlands
education symposium on teaching wetlands ecology to college students we are
gathering information for a talk entitled "What's being taught in Wetlands
Class?" We are targeting courses for college students and not short
courses. To conduct this talk we are looking for a recent syllabus of the
class. In addition to the topics covered, we would like the answer to the
9 questions listed below. Please include this additional information if it
is not readily apparent in the syllabus. Please send your syllabus and your
answers to the questions below to Jim Anderson at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Thanks for your help.
Jim Anderson
1. What textbook(s), if any, do you use?
2. Do you use outside readings?
3. How many credits is the course?
4. Is there a lab associated with the course? If yes, does it meet on a
regular basis or is it more sporadic such as a number of field trips?
5. What department is the course taught in?
6. What university/college is the class taught at?
7. Is the course primarily for undergraduate or graduate students? If
