Tundra - Virtual Fieldwork

Fieldwork: Hudson Bay
Some schools may be able to do a field trip to Canada, however, for most schools if you use this case study, the best option would be to complete fieldwork on Environmental Change as a general topic in your local area, and complete virtual fieldwork on this case study. Below are some options to help you do this.
​​
Observations
An important initial step in any fieldwork trip is observation. An observation helps provide the researcher with a broad view of the environment and can help frame initial research questions or provide general information about basic questions in your research.

​
Line drawing/Photosketch
Tools:
  • pen,
  • paper,
  • eraser,
  • ruler

Examine the scene and settle on a particular view
Draw a box (frame) for your sketch.
Draw a general outline of the view.
Label key features of the view on your photosketch or line drawing. The items that you label may depend on the focus of your research questions.
Include a heading, the date of the sketch and the website the view was sketched from.
