This learning path introduces high school students to the fundamental principles of paleontology, covering how fossils form, how they are used to interpret Earth's history, and the major patterns in the evolution of life. Learners will explore key concepts such as fossilization, index fossils, evolutionary change, mass extinctions, and paleoenvironments, building a solid foundation for understanding the history of life on Earth.
This learning path introduces the fundamental processes shaping coastal environments, including waves, tides, and currents, and how they drive erosion and deposition. Learners will explore major coastal landforms such as beaches and barrier islands, examine coastal hazards, and understand the causes and impacts of sea-level change. Designed for high school students, the path builds from basic earth science concepts to applied coastal geology.
This learning path introduces the fundamentals of rock deformation and common structural features in structural geology. It covers stress and strain, deformation mechanisms, and the recognition and interpretation of folds, faults, joints, and cleavage, culminating in basic structural analysis.
This learning path introduces students to the fundamentals of glacial geology, covering glacier types, glacial erosion, transportation, and deposition, and the resulting landforms such as moraines, drumlins, eskers, and glacial striations. It is designed for high school students seeking a systematic understanding of how glaciers shape the landscape.
This learning path introduces high school students to the fundamentals of hydrogeology, covering groundwater occurrence, movement, and aquifer systems. It progresses from basic concepts of porosity and permeability to the water table, aquifers, recharge/discharge processes, and contamination issues.
A structured learning path for high school students to understand the dynamics of river systems, from drainage basins and stream flow to erosion, transportation, deposition, and the resulting fluvial landforms. The path progresses from foundational concepts to integrated understanding of channel patterns and floodplains.
This learning path introduces the processes of physical and chemical weathering and how they contribute to soil formation. It covers the major types of weathering, soil horizons, and soil types, along with the key factors that influence soil development. Designed for high school students studying surface processes in geology.
A systematic learning path covering the processes of metamorphism, the agents and types of metamorphism, metamorphic grade and index minerals, and the textural and compositional classification of metamorphic rocks. Designed for high school geology students seeking a foundational understanding of metamorphic petrology.
This learning path introduces the formation and classification of igneous rocks. Starting from the basics of the rock cycle and Earth's interior, it covers magma genesis, intrusive versus extrusive settings, textures, mineral composition, Bowen's reaction series, and finally the classification of igneous rocks. The path emphasizes the relationships between these concepts and includes practice and assessment to reinforce learning.
This learning path introduces high school students to the fundamental skills required for safe and effective geological fieldwork. It covers essential equipment, basic rock identification, measuring strike and dip, maintaining field notes, and adhering to safety protocols. The path is designed to prepare learners for hands-on field experiences.
