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>The module was implemented at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.geneseo.edu/" target="_blank">SUNY Geneseo, Department of Biology</a><a href="https://www.mountunion.edu/" target="_blank">&nbsp;</a>by Jennifer L. Apple.&nbsp;</p>

5<ul>  3<ul>  
6   <li>Guided Approach: Students will generate questions abut bald eagle numbers influenced by weather and food availability. &nbsp;Students will then use graphing software (JMP of Excel) to compile the data in a graphical form to answer their questions.</li>  4   <li><strong>Course</strong>:&nbsp;BIOL 203 - Principles of Ecology&nbsp;</li>
7   <li>Open-Ended Approach: Students will generate their own hypothesis of interest from the larger bald eagle data set. &nbsp;This approach is encouraged for upper division ecology students in conservation biology, wildlife management, or population ecology classes.</li>  5   <li><strong>Course Level</strong>:&nbsp;Generally sophomores; biology majors (but minors may take course too)</li>
   6   <li><strong>Instructional Setting</strong>:&nbsp;Lecture</li>
   7   <li><strong>Implementation Timeframe</strong>:&nbsp;1 50-minute class period near the middle of the semester</li>
