Lesson 1 - Water: The Basic Resource
Topics:
Precipitation; Surface runoff; Groundwater; Municipal, industrial, and agricultural use; Waste disposal; Upgrading water quality
Learning Objectives:
– Name the continuing processes that make up the water or hydrologic cycle.
– Describe the atmospheric process that produces precipitation.


Lesson 2 - Water Collection, Treatment, and Distribution
Topics:
Collecting surface water and ground water; Transmission of water; Treatment types; Distribution; Primary, secondary, and tertiary treatment
Learning Objectives:
– Explain the differences between a confined aquifer and an unconfined one.
– Tell why it is necessary to treat water for drinking and for manufacturing purposes.
– Describe the treatment processes of sedimentation and coagulation.
– Describe how a system for the distribution of treated water operates.


Lesson 3 - Physical Properties of Water
