This course explores environmental conservation principles by following the movement of an elephant seal over the course of a few months. Using Python code, students write the code for the instrument that would work to document important data points. Together, they generate ideas about the animal�s movements and what can be done to protect and preserve the species. Features include 19 student activities, 8 teacher resources, 8 checkpoints, 20 quiz questions, an auto-grader and content available in both English and Spanish.
