Levels 9 - 11 forms (14 – 17 Years old)
Project Overview
Author Demidova O., Gymnasia № 44, Irkutsk, Russia
• To get acquainted with problems of planet water resources;• To compare structure and quality of water in different regions
of Russia;• To learn to work with Microsoft Virtual Earth maps; • To receive observation skills; • To create network community of teacher and pupils –
defenders of water resources of Russia.
Objectives
Description Groups of pupils of various Russian schools get acquainted with properties of water and by practical consideration define structure and quality of water resources in the region, render received data on a virtual maps and represent the work report in the form of computer presentation.

Teacher Planning and Management
Background and Planning
Background & Planning: Lake Baikal is considered to be the world’s purest water reservoir. It contains 1/5 part of all world reserves of superficial sweet waters. The Angara river, the only Baikal source, is one of the purest rivers distinguished by a high transparency of water. Pupils begin the research with these reservoirs. Are structure and quality of water equal all over Russia? The purpose is to answer this question.
Classroom Images: The chemical laboratory, study of information technologies are involved in the project;
