Student Projects

---

During a semester long project students create informational web pages on their assigned topics. The purpose of their web pages is to provide detailed information on tree related topics for use by both professionals and homeowners. Students provide all of the content and decide how best to present the information. They are graded on accuracy of the information, organization, relevance, and appropriate citations. References are required and must be from reputable sources (i.e. Journal articles, Academic books, Government Agencies, Professional Organizations or Universities).
