• Resumen

  • This article describes a first-year chemistry field experience for students preparing to be high school teachers. The students test the quality of surface water in rural and metropolitan areas in their own community, and evaluate the effects of urban sprawl and seasonal variation. The discovery of how water quality affects the environment in their own region helps students engage with the subject matter.
