3.4 SELF-STUDY AND REVIEW QUESTIONS
The purpose of the self study questions is to provide individuals using the River Awareness Kit with an opportunity to carry out a self evaluation about what they have learned and what still needs to be learned about river structures and physical processes. These questions provide an opportunity to review and think about the important facts and concepts that have been presented in this section.
You can return to the material in the main text to review information on each topic, you can get some ideas about the answer by discussing the issues they raise with some of your colleagues, or you can utilize the RAK web site and especially the Bulletin Board to get help from one of the content experts that participated in the development of the RAK.
