I was recently reading the July-August 2024 issue of Science Scope, a journal published by the National Science Teaching Association, for middle school teachers.

In this issue, I read the “Citizen Science” section, written by Jill Nugent.  She wrote an article entitled “Summer Science With the Secchi Dip-In Project.”

The Robert Carlson Secchi Dip-In Project is a demonstration of the potential of volunteer monitors to gather environmentally important information on our lakes, rivers, and estuaries.  For more information, visit:
