| 1 | <p>How does a bald eagle population change over time at a winter migratory stopover and which factors influence its abundance?</p>
| 1 | <p>This is the powerpoint I used to introduce the bald eagle activity. It is fairly barebones as most of my powerpoints are. I also felt it necessary to modify the lab report rubric for something in between their "short" and "full" rubrics.</p> |

| 6 | <li>Guided Approach: Students will generate questions abut bald eagle numbers influenced by weather and food availability. Students will then use graphing software (JMP of Excel) to compile the data in a graphical form to answer their questions.</li>

| 7 | <li>Open-Ended Approach: Students will generate their own hypothesis of interest from the larger bald eagle data set. This approach is encouraged for upper division ecology students in conservation biology, wildlife management, or population ecology classes.</li>
