This module was implemented in a 1^st year course (lab) designed for majors, but is also an option for non-majors to fulfill general education requirements. Before we started the lab, a PPT on quadratic regression and basic statistical analyses in Excel was presented (that PPT is available in this Collection). I then gave this brief PPT on Bald Eagles and I introduced the module. I cut the module to only the guided exercises and to work on the questions:

Part I: How does the bald eagle population at a winter stopover change over three decades?

Part II: How do salmon abundance and December temperatures influence bald eagle numbers?

The module still took about 3 hours and 15 minutes to complete, but it all fit in the single lab period we had allotted for this particular module.
