The WW2100 broader impacts team developed a slide set for students about the water cycle in the Willamette Basin. The slide set helps students think about where the water we use comes from, and the factors that affect its availability and quality. The slide set is designed for students grade eight and above and includes:
- Specific examples of ways natural and human processes affect water supply and demand in the Willamette Basin.
- A list of the specific Next Generation Science Standards addressed.
- Suggestions for pre- and post-quiz questions to determine the content's effect on student understanding and opinions related to water.
