MWEE Introduction: Learn about the fundamentals of Meaningful Watershed Educational Experiences (or MWEEs) from NOAA representatives. This student-centered approach to evidence-driven learning incorporates local phenomena and real-world issues. When individuals participate in MWEEs, they investigate, solve problems, and make connections. In addition to reviewing some of the fundamentals, the presentation will also include ways to get more information (including self-paced training) on MWEE implementation. The subsequent presentations in this session will all demonstrate different ways that MWEEs have been implemented across the Gulf states.
