Lessons in Conservation 10: Conservation and Technology

Technologies are changing the way conservation is practiced—and students should be familiar with technologies—not only how to use them, but also whether, when, and where to use them, and how to manage the massive amounts of data they produce. The "Conservation and Technology" issue of Lessons in Conservation, Volume 10 features exercises that familiarize students with these challenges. In addition to manipulating and analyzing real data, the exercises allow students to reflect and think critically about the remarkable potential and realistic limitations of these technologies.
