Acknowledgements

We would like to thank the SLE352: Community Science Project staff at Deakin University who made this project a possibility. To Assoc Prof Jan West for coordinating the projects and providing skill development for working in teams and professionalism. To our client Dr Peta White for taking us on to be a part of the ReMSTEP Contemporary Science Project and her ongoing support and guidance. Her belief in our vision encouraged us to create something beyond what we currently see in the classroom. To Mary Vamvakas for her help in developing ideas for resources and ensuring they were not only applicable but also engaging. Thanks also to Sarah Miles for her illustrations that set the theme for the site. Thanks also to Prof Russell Tytler, a project leader of the ReMSTEP project, for offering his advice on the project and inspiring us to create something innovative. Finally and most importantly, thank you to Prof Don Driscoll who without his research, these resources would not be possible. Thank you for helping to inspire the next generation on some of our most important ecological issues facing our planet.
