La geología en el mundo

In this ongoing class, learners will explore a different geologic feature around the world each week. In this engaging class, we will discuss the location of each feature and explore the geologic characteristics that are present. Learners will be presented with a short lecture about the area at the beginning of class that may include slides, photos, and videos to better understand that week's topic. After an introduction to the geologic feature, we will shift into a discussion to engage the learners so that everyone has the opportunity to present thoughts relevant to the topic. As a geologist, I enjoy sharing my love of science with others and it is my hope that all learners become interested in understanding how the world around us works.

We will cover the following features. Please note that this schedule is subject to change based on learner experience. Students are allowed to suggest places they are interested in learning about in this course. See the sample course outline below. Each section is likely on a different place depending on the students and their interests. 

Schedule is subject to change based on what students are interested in learning. Please note that there are multiple sections of this class that started at various dates and we start with the beginning of the following sequence so that students can learn about each place. This is an ongoing class so you can jump in and out as necessary. New topics are always being added.
