Final Steps

On Friday, we will wrap up the fish kill problem. Hopefully every group has completed their graphs and at this point you probably have a pretty good idea of what may have caused the fish kill. The presentations on areas of expertise should confirm your suspicions. Here is the agenda for Friday's class:
1) Groups present areas of expertise in front of class.
2) Individual groups reconvene to make conclusions on the cause of this fish kill, using what you now know about the possible causes and your analysis of the data. Prepare to present your conclusions to the class. Make sure you back up your conclusion with evidence. (Talking about your answers to questions 1-3 in the Data Analysis might help guide your conclusions).
3) Groups present their final conclusions to the class and as a class we will come to consensus on the cause of the fish kill.

Each group needs to turn in some information so that I can give you all some points for the work you have done. You will turn back in your folders with the following items:
1) The original data packet
2) All of your graphs
3) A copy of each persons current event
Please turn in these items only and in this order.
