Teaching Tip on 'Interpreting Geologic Sections'
The layout of this website was frustrating and I did not know what I was expected to learn.
Teaching Tip on 'The Greenhouse Effect'
I thought this site was an excellent, easy to follow tool which can be used as a learning guide for students of many ages and grades. The information is clear and easily understood. The images help give a visual understanding as they coincide with the written information.
Teaching Tip on 'Geology Labs On-line: VirtualRiver'
This site was very useful, though I wish they could break down the information a little more for kids who truly don't understand.
Teaching Tip on 'TopoZone'
Students can be assigned to bring in a printed topo map from Topozone.com with their houses marked prominently with an X. It gives them skills in using the 'net as well as navigating with a map.
Suggested for grades 5-10
Teaching Tip on 'How Big Are the Floodplains on Mars? (title provided or enhanced by cataloger)'
More reseach work should be intensified.
Teaching Tip on 'Geology Labs On-line: VirtualRiver'
Make math directions less confusing.
Teaching Tip on 'Fundamentals of Physical Geography'
It would be nice to view some cross sectional cuts of glaciers and to have some interactive variables such as temperature, snow, heat, etc. on glacier movement.
Teaching Tip on 'Volcano Field Trip'
Take each part of the volcano one part at a time. Learn how it works, then focus on actual volcanoes in Hawaii and Washington. That way it will make seeing a real volcano even more interesting.
Editor's summary for 'Global Water Sampling Project'
The resource being annotated is: http://www.dlese.org/dds/catalog_DLESE-000-000-001-641.htm
Teaching Tip on 'Virtual Earthquake'
My daughter completed this application. It is a good learning tool (I did it with her), but suggest that you make the certificate printout in basic black and white to be easier on the inkjet printer cartridges. They have to print out the certification and turn it in. Thanks
