Student Directed Research Projects
The student directed research projects started three weeks ago on March 31st and ended on April 24th. Some projects have involved intense biological surveys which required field work three out of every four days, if not every day. Other projects such as the ethnobotany project and the cost-benefit analysis of reforestation, required involvement and interaction with the community.
