Cost $10, Advanced registration required Come visit the Environmental Research and Innovation Center (ERIC) at UW Oshkosh and explore ways you and your students can engage in water testing, renewable energy evaluations, and evaluation of emerging contaminants. The ERIC will host a group from WSST that will perform a rotation of three activities. All are activities that are available to you and your students during the school year and have exercises that you can take back to your own school. The ERIC team will have the visiting group split into three groups to rotate between: 1) an exploration of coliform and E.coli testing of drinking water and surface water using the most used test in the US, the IDEXX defined substrate test, 2) evaluation of renewable energy potential (anaerobic digestion) of various products, and 3) evaluation water processes in coastal situations, lakes, rivers, and streams, and water treatment dynamics using hands-on models.
