This project builds capacity and advances environmental literacy efforts that integrate geospatial technology use among educators in the Lake Erie, Susquehanna River, and Delaware Estuary watersheds. Partners are developing, implementing, and researching a professional development module that encourages the use of GIS to support watershed-based inquiry practices in times of physical distancing and limited mobility.
