Water Pollution
This Nuffield Working with Science unit encouraged students to consider water pollution problems at national and international level, by coming to understand a local example of pollution through their own investigations.
Guidance for teachers and technicians appears in Teachers’ Notes C.
Parts of this unit were incorporated into a single unit about pollution for the second, CPVE edition of the project.
