World of Plants student work

My World of Plants course requires students to complete a Term Project through a semester-long process of scientific research, concept proposal, and creative execution.

Term Project & Summary

Students in the World of Plants start the semester by exploring the plants in their immediate environment, learning to use iNaturalist to identify plant species. Through building a plant collection, students begin to consider the great diversity of roles that plants can play in our ecosystems. Thinking of these roles, students do research to identify a “social challenge” that can be addressed through a “creative intervention” involving plants. They then develop their creative intervention, eventually presenting it to the class. The guidelines for this assignment can be found here. Below are some of the best student Term Projects & Summaries I have received, downloadable as PDF’s:
