Teams review stakeholder comments and identify at least one specific improvement to their model or SWAP proposal (e.g., adjusting hatchery stocking strategy to reduce loss of genetic diversity). Students document what feedback they received, what change they made, and why the revision better aligns with community needs and evolutionary principles.

Student-facing instructions
Your task is to review and analyze the feedback from stakeholders on your fish population model. You will document the feedback you've collected, identify specific revisions to improve your model and proposal, then present these modifications to your peers for further input. Ensure your revisions align with principles of natural selection and address community challenges related to declining biodiversity and overfishing. You will need your original model, any documents from stakeholder sessions, and tools for revising your proposal.
