What is an Unit?

A Unit is an exercise that involves data analysis using a computational tool to describe a hydrology concept. Each unit has some learning outcomes, a set of operations, called Steps, to be performed in a sequential manner, and a quiz to assess the learning outcomes after the completion of the unit. A Unit is typically formed by combining multiple steps, but one could choose to include a single step to form a Unit as long as the step can achieve the hydrology learning outcome of the unit. This page contains a list of existing Units in the system. The steps that are used in creating these units can be found on the List of Steps page.
