Monitoring Video
Thanks
to support from The
Mountaineers Foundation, WEN wrote and produced an instructional
video featuring background information on stream monitoring and watershed
science. The video provides a step-by-step training in the three parameters
of stream monitoring as established by the Volunteer Water Monitoring
Project Protocol, and can be used by citizen scientists, community watershed
groups and teachers nation wide.
THE
STREAM MONITORING VIDEO CAN BE USED TO:
1)
Assist participating teachers with stream monitoring in the classroom
before and after a WEN field trip.
2) Provide teachers with enough background information, resources, and
training to successfully lead a stream monitoring field trip in the
absence of WEN’s assistance. Additionally, the video will be accessible
to any citizen of Missoula and western-Montana to initiate a stream
monitoring program in their local community. Since the concepts are
(with some adaptations) universal, the video can also be used by teachers
and citizens across the nation.
