SUMMARY:Young Scientists Research Experience
DESCRIPTION:During this unique experience\, students will explore and carry out their own research project. Young Scientists will engage in inquiry-based\, hands-on learning as they develop their own research questions\, collect and analyze data\, and present their results\, all under the guidance of an experienced mentor. This opportunity is perfect for middle and high school students with an interest in the environmental and natural sciences and the desire to experience ecological fieldwork. We welcome motivated students who are excited to spend the week at our beautiful\, 900-acre field station in the northern Virginia Piedmont in the company of like-minded peers. \nExample research questions include: \n\nHow does road noise affect the singing of birds\, frogs\, and other animals?\nWhere on the field station is there the most evidence of deer and other mammals?\nAre there more insects on plants that are native to Virginia or on exotic plants?\n\nAges: 13-18 at the time of camp. \nCost: $350.  Please note that the ticket will appear as “Free” until registration opens. \nCancellation Policy: Cancellations prior to 30 days before the start of camp will receive a full refund\, minus a $50 nonrefundable registration fee.
