Research in the local environment on water nuisance.docx

<\/HEAD>

In this assignment, students conduct research on water nuisance issues in their own environment. They can carry out this research at the end of a series of lessons about water nuisance. In the research, students must apply theory about how water nuisance can arise and about solution measures.<\/P>

How does it work? Students go to their own neighborhood and open the website www.tinyurl.com\/waterbijhoosbui<\/A> on their smartphone. On the map, they see where water remains on the street when a downpour occurs. They then go to such places and take a photo at each location with their smartphone. They must also try to think about why water remains on the street here specifically, what problems can arise, and what measures can be taken. Back at school, they create a storymap based on these photos.<\/P>

Here is an example of a storymap made by two students from HAVO 2:

Target group: lower and upper secondary education, all levels (really!).<\/P>

Duration: 1\/2 lesson preparation, 1 lesson for making the storymaps. Data collection takes place in personal time.  <\/P><\/BODY><\/HTML>
