Full Session Description (as long as you would like): A major environmental concern affecting the protection of global biodiversity is the spread of invasive species. It is important for students to understand what invasive species are, how they were introduced, what impact they can have on native species and ecosystems, and how they can be managed and/or how their spread can be prevented. Students will collaborate online through media displays and/or presentations with a goal of examining similarities and differences of regional invasive species and the identification of how they can be managed or their spread reduced or prevented.
