Summary
Abstract: The Water on the Web Internet Map Server site helps college and high school
students understand and solve real-world environmental problems using advanced
technology. The website contains two sets of curricula, data from many lakes
and rivers nationwide, extensive online primers, data interpretation and
Geographic Information System Tools, and additional supporting materials. Basic
Science consists of individual lessons for infusion into a wide range of
existing science courses. Water Resource Science is a two-semester water
resource management curriculum for second year technical students and
undergraduates in water or environmental management disciplines. It includes a
GIS map server that students can use to investigate local lakes and rivers.
