Students at Jefferson described a year-long combined government and environmental science course that uses project-based learning. They cited a field trip to the city water purification plant, in-class labs on turbidity and water purification, watching the film Dark Waters, and a project making books on how a bill becomes law. Pupils and instructors said the course integrates government policy with environmental issues and gives more time for deeper, applied learning than semester-long classes.
