Quest Reflections
How has this Quest changed you?
Think back to the beginning of your Quest. What new things have you learned? How has your opinion about your local river, lake, wetland, or other freshwater ecosystem changed? How did this Quest motivate you to take action? How are you interested in helping other parts of your natural environment? How will this affect what you say to others about Minnesota’s freshwaters, and how you say it?
How can you inspire others to learn about and help their local freshwater ecosystems?
How does your new perspective differ from others in your community? How could you use your new understanding and project experience to spark their interest and concern in helping freshwater animal species and improving and protecting their local ecosystems?
Group Reflection
