Smith, Steven; Roemmele, Christopher; Miller, Bridget T.; Frisbee, Marty D. – Science Teacher, 2018
Groundwater contamination is a serious environmental problem, given that all living things depend on this essential resource. Groundwater represents less than 1% of all water found on Earth, but nearly 90% of the freshwater used comes from groundwater (USGS 2016). The problem-based activity described in this article actively engages students in…
