These Power Point slides are not to bad. Just trying to put together the proper information that Task Stream is looking for can be challenging. My first submission on "The Eco-system of Chernobyl then and now" was sent back for minor revisions. Had to rework how the wolves played their role has top level predators. It came back 2 days later with pass!
Now onto the last part of this INT1. An experiment with documentation 4-8 pages long with a testable hypothesis, and a reference page, and a few other fun things.
Unfortunately, I can't use wolves for this. Hmmmmmmmmmm time to put my thinking cap on.

INT1 Task 1 done
I sweated my submission of task 1 for no reason. It came back with top scores on all points. Now off to task 2 about an eco-system of my choice. Hmmmmmmmmmm since my first task was about wolves and the Chernobyl disaster. I think I'll use that eco-system before mankind ruined it.

INT1
Well it looks like I will be able to use Wolves as part of my study subject in INT1. I have to create a power point presentation with a Scientific concept that has changed over the years. I also have to create one about a Scientific event that happened, and how it changed our thinking. For the first I will use how our concept of wolves has changed since the medieval times. The second I will use the Chernobyl disaster and what we learned from that. Only 5-6 slides on each, but I have to condense alot of information and provide references. Would love to knock this one out quickly, but the 3rd part may be even more challenging. I just glanced briefly at it, because I prefer to tackle the subject at hand, and not look to far forward. Works for me is all I can say.
Got 6 slides ready for the first task. Now to take on the Chernobyl disaster. What did we learn? It was caused by a combination of human error and faulty equipment. Russia tried to hide the initial expanse of the damage, and deceived the people around the area. What I found fascinating was that 25 years later, the eco-system recovered without man's assistance, and the wolf is the top-level predator over the entire area. The fact that wolves are there, means there is a healthy eco-system in place, or they would not be able to survive. The initial research seems interesting. Will keep you posted.
All the best,
Stephen.
