The Meaningful Watershed Educational Experience (MWEE) is a learner-centered framework that focuses on investigations into local environmental issues and leads to informed action. MWEEs are made up of multiple components that include learning both outdoors and in the classroom and are designed to increase environmental literacy by actively engaging students in building knowledge and meaning through hands-on experiences. In these experiences, the core ideas and practices of multiple disciplines are applied to make sense of the relationships between the natural world and society. MWEEs help connect students with their local environment and equip them to make decisions and take actions that contribute to stronger, sustainable, and equitable communities.
These kits provide a classroom teacher with all the tools to engage their students in a watershed study and consist of 4 parts:
- Part 1: Chemical Field Study Supplies
- Part 2: Biological Field Study Supplies
- Part 3: Climate/ Weather Field Study Supplies
- Part 4 Soils Field study Supplies
