A Watershed in Motion

Lesson Plans - Platte Basin Timelapse

~~~~~

As part of the The Platte Basin Timelapse (PBT) team I was the Educational Media Producer creating STEM-based educational curriculum for late elementary, middle and high school students. Click on link above.

PBT has been in motion and funded since early 2011. Currently the project has more than 40 time-lapse camera systems placed throughout the 90,000 square mile basin, from its headwaters along the Continental Divide in the Colorado Rockies to its confluence with the Missouri River on Nebraska’s eastern border. Like chapters in a book, each time-lapse camera tells one part of the story of that proverbial drop of water as it makes a journey of roughly 900 river miles through the heart of North America.

The PBT team creates innovative multimedia content to tell the myriad stories of the Platte: web-based journalism, STEM-based educational curriculum and a documentary film for public television.
