Abstract
This paper describes a program that trains
teachers to conduct trend monitoring research projects with
their students. This project is important because it provides
citizen awareness on the part of both teachers and students
and introduces students to a variety of careers in fields
related to water resources management. More important yet,
it improves both basic science education and the
understanding of the relationship and importance of science
in resource management and public policy.
