Seven topics of Earth Science will be taught, including Introduction to Earth Science, Measuring Change, Measuring the Earth, the Earth in Space, Energy, Insolation, and Weather. The class will be a combination of lecture / PowerPoint, use of physical models, video presentations, and class worksheets completed together. I believe in as much interaction as possible with the students, so questions are encouraged. I tend to move quickly, but also ask students to let me know if I am going too fast. My philosophy is to make the lessons as dynamic and fun for students as possible. Students should come to each class ready to work and be inquisitive.

I am a Science Teacher with 24 years of experience in public schools. I have degrees in Marine Science, Natural Science, and Earth Science Education. Science is a passion that I have had since I was a boy. Learning Science should be fun,.... because SCIENCE is FUN ! I teach anything related to my degrees, such as Astronomy, Space Science, Marine Biology, Environmental Science, Rocks and Minerals, Weather, Plate Tectonics, etc. with added courses on methods of data presentation such as Excel and PowerPoint. I have also taught Advanced Research Methods such as DNA Extraction, PCR, and Gel Electrophoresis. I am a huge nerd with Lord of the Rings, Marvel, Image, and D.C. Comics, and Science Fiction being my hobbies, along with reading, hiking, fishing, drawing, and model building. Having tagged sharks for 33 years, I am something of a "Shark Nerd" as well. I have taught science to students in grades 5 - 12, ran science fairs for elementary, middle, and high school students, and taught them presentation skills. I am very happy to be joining Outschool and look forward to working with students sharing the wonders of science !!!
