There is a new online professional development course available called the Arizona Water Story. After successfully completing the Arizona Water Story online course, you will be able to use the curriculum and resources to teach students about Arizona’s history, geography, and water conservation as it relates to the state of Arizona. This course is designed for grade 4-6 teachers but anyone interested in learning more about Arizona’s water system is welcome to participate.
The Arizona Water Story online course was developed from existing curriculum materials provided by the Central Arizona Project (CAP). The course uses imagery, video, discussion forums, and hands-on activities that will allow you to immediately use the curriculum with your students.
During the course, we will be investigating the role of discussion forums in online courses. If you agree to complete this course (as a participant in a research study), you will be making a contribution to the information known about discussion forums in an online learning environment.
