Lesson 1: Introduction & My Internship Journey

Implementing Biocontrol & Enhancing Wetlands at DOE sites 

Welcome to this seven-lesson learning series. Each lesson in this lesson plan is independent, meaning you can move through them at your own pace and focus on what you need most. To get the full benefit of each lesson, please take notes as you go and take your time—this will help you keep track of key points, field tips, and any important instructions. 

You’ll notice that some slides include audio, but not every slide will have a recorded explanation. When you reach a slide without audio, please take the initiative to continue through the lesson by clicking forward. The content on those slides is still important, and your understanding of it will support the activities in each section. 

Each lesson includes an independent activity. When you complete an activity, please send it to me through email at [email protected] . Make sure to highlight which lesson the activity belongs to—this helps me stay organized and provide you with clear, timely feedback. 

Thank you for your commitment to this learning journey. I’m excited to support you through all seven lessons and help you build skills that will support your work in the field.
