Collect data this spring on national study of global warming (Project Budburst)

  The Project Budburst website says: "Join us in collecting important climate change data on the timing of leafing and flowering in your area through Project BudBurst! This national field campaign targets native tree and flower species across the country. With your help, we will be compiling valuable environmental and climate change information around the United States."  

 
  Project Foundry is an online project-based learning management tool built by former practitioners and used in 50 schools across the country, including Minnesota New Country School in Henderson, MN (Google: coolest school). These folks are partnered with EdVisions Schools and the Senior Project Center, which helps them provide very pragmatic pbl teacher training. [NOTE: Joining Project Foundrydoes cost, but there are also free resources on the front page]
