GLISTEN Vision
Integrating Great-Lakes-stewardship-focused
civic engagement into undergraduate
coursework in the STEM disciplines
Aligned with SENCER (Science Education for New
Civic Engagements and Responsibilities), an
NSF-funded program of the National Center
for Science and Civic Engagement
www.sencer.net
![Page 13: Glisten presentation la mp forum meeting-9-10](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051516/55a8e8c81a28ab21498b47da/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
GLISTEN Goal
Build the capacity of STEM faculty and
departments to
• significantly increase their undergraduates’
understanding of the STEM disciplines
byengaging them in direct action (i.e., service-
learning) and community-based research
benefiting resource-strapped governmental
and community-based organizations
![Page 14: Glisten presentation la mp forum meeting-9-10](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051516/55a8e8c81a28ab21498b47da/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
GLISTEN Goal (cont.)
• better prepare those students for “green”
professional opportunities likely to result from
President Obama’s $5 billion pledge to restore
the Great Lakes, and
• provide them with the basic scientific
knowledge necessary to become enlightened
stakeholders who exhibit proactive
stewardship behaviors in their private lives.

Jahnke and Lisdahl, biology majors at the University of Wisconsin-Superior,
conduct the first plant survey in 50 years on Wisconsin Point, the long
finger of beach, dunes and forest separating Superior Bay from Lake
Superior. Their work will guide other students in learning more about the
point's dune environment, and help future efforts to manage the area and
rid it of invasive plant species.

Environmental science major Kandice Spera, left, records
measurements of Beauty Creek on the west side of Valparaiso,
Indiana. She’s recording flow rates that could affect the health
of living species – plants, fish and other organisms.

"This is real field work ... you have to go in and get dirty to get the data,"
said Spera. "We take the water samples back to Valpo labs to find the
phosphorous concentration levels and to labs at IU-Northwest where
testing is done to measure suspended solids (sediment) in the water."
Spera said she is motivated by knowing that her work can help make a
difference in protecting the natural environment.
"There are many species of these little creatures that live in the bottom of
the stream, and if there's too much sediment they won't be able to live,"
said Spera.
