The Center for Workforce Development and Diversity (CWDD) hosted an aquatic macroinvertebrate identification workshop on July 19, 2017 at St. Michael's College. The workshop was offered to middle school level instructors to help them incorporate the study of aquatic ecosystems into their curricula. St. Michael’s College professor Dr. Declan McCabe, a member of BREE, led the interactive workshop. Five teachers attended and learned how to identify various macroinvertebrates using microscopes and received an introduction to the Vermont EPSCoR macroinvertebrate App.
