Colorado Ecosystems

Introduction

20100717072846ytyty.jpg

Congratulations!  Your team of scientists has been chosen by the Sparta Museum of Natural History to take part in an ecology research project to help promote pride in the diversity of Colorado.  Your team of distinguished scientists includes a botanist, zoologist, environmentalist and ecologist. Your task is to research a Colorado ecosystem and design a virtual ecosystem museum display to educate the students of Colorado. 

Before you embark on your project, we need to have a "Proposal" on file.  In your proposal,  your team will need to state five questions you hope to be able to provide answers for.  We also have some objectives that each scientist will need to complete.  These objectives can be discussed in the "Task".   The exact details on how to achieve these objectives can be found in the "Process".

 

The museum requires that you utilize and cite sources that are endorsed by the museum.  These resources can be found on the "Process" page.  Before submitting your final product, your team must be sure that your presentation adheres to the museum's strict standards of performance.  To ensure that your display is not turned down by the board of directors, review the "Sparta Museum of Natural History Evaluation" rubric on the "Evaluation" page.

The board of directors has demanded that all virtual displays be launched during Eco Week, therefore we have strict deadlines that the team must adhere to.  Our representative will be meeting with you to assign the ecosystem.  Good Luck!  We look forward to your final product.
