Description:
ETE encourages students to collaborate to solve real-world problems dealing with modern environmental challenges. For each module, students read background information and learn about their situation before they solve a problem. Read teacher pages before beginning. In this module, students predict the future of the Florida panther based on their Earth system science analysis of the restoration of water to the Everglades.
