AGRICULTURAL LANDSCAPES AS LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS TO INFORM UNDERSTANDING OF WATERSHEDS
Advancements in technology provide new opportunities to engage students and others in nature-based, non-formal educational experiences, either through direct contact with a place, or through mediated experiences. Mobile technologies and applications are making it possible to stream live audio and video content from outdoor research sites through the web to a variety of audiences. Here we highlight examples of ways that we are sharing information and knowledge about water resources in agricultural and natural systems in Nebraska, as well as the process of science and opportunities for careers in science. This includes a partnership among the Platte Basin Timelapse (PBT) project, a web-based platform that provides a way for people to interact with time-lapse imagery of landscapes through digital storytelling, and Streaming Science, an interactive electronic field trip produced and streamed via iPads. We also describe field-based experiential learning opportunities for middle and high school teachers linked to PBT and Streaming Science. Overall, our efforts focus on creating and developing visual, scientific, and educational encounter experiences that help people better understand the interconnectivity of human and natural systems within watersheds.
