Classroom Type: Introductory lab for biology majors.
Modifications: Because our campus was closed for one week, we implemented the phenology module online through Blackboard. Each section was a separate submodule that could be turned in separately. I included a prelab quiz from how we are implementing this lab in the classroom this fall; prelab quizzes are meant to test whether students prepared for the lab by reading the introduction and part I procedures. An optional excel graphing assignment was for students with little to no graphing skills (the practice_data.xls file is for the optional excel exercise).
