4日營：地質學P2-化石、恐龍、滅絕、沉積岩

▬▬▬▬▬▬ INTRODUCTION  ▬▬▬▬▬
Welcome to "Earth Sciences: Geology 4 day Camp PART 2", which focuses on the most dramatic physical forces in Earth Sciences which created the rock formations around us and the fossils in the ground, with the aim of making learning fun and exhilarating. I think making learning enjoyable and bringing science to life is the best way to get kids engaged and learning without realising it. Please let me know if there is a time and day that suits you best and I can schedule this series for you in a few weeks time hopefully.

This course focuses on some of the most exciting Geological and Geophysical processes that formed the Earth and still move the continents today: building mountains, setting off earthquakes and feeding volcanic eruptions. We also look at what made the dinosaurs go extinct and what is more deadly: a boiling lava river or a killer ash flow! This is not a complete Earth Science curriculum but covers many of the key aspects of the Geology part of many courses taught in schools. I also do a full 8 class weekly course and all classes are also available individually with discounts (see my Class Listings for details). No previous experience necessary and Part 1 & Part 2 can be taken in any order.

▬▬▬▬▬▬  CLASS SCHEDULE ▬▬▬▬▬

1) SEDIMENTARY ROCKS: FAULTS AND FOLDS

2) SEDIMENTARY ROCKS: FOSSILS & DROWNED FORESTS

3) THE CARBON CYCLE, OIL INDUSTRY, GREENHOUSE EFFECT AND RENEWABLE ENERGY

4) HOW DID THE DINOSAURS GO EXTINCT? WAS IT EXTENDED VOLCANISM OR A KILLER ASTEROID?


▬▬▬▬▬▬  CLASS STYLE  ▬▬▬▬▬
I use PowerPoint presentations for all my classes, so I can mix text and multimedia and make the class more interesting. These classed will be run using an "intro-discussion-repeat" format. This means I will take a few minutes to introduce a topic, using images or videos wherever appropriate in order to bring the subject alive. Then we will pause to discuss what we have learnt briefly and take questions and make sure everyone is keeping up. Then we'll move on to the next exciting sub-topic and supporting material, and then pause for discussion after that one too. This means that you can enjoy the class however you like. Speak up and get involved in the discussions, or just listen and enjoy with no pressure.These subjects are cherry picked to choose the most interesting, accessible and relevant Earth Science subjects for kids, so they learn to enjoy exploring the world around them. Hopefully inspiring them to learn more about Geology, Earth Science and Science in general

▬▬▬▬▬▬  LINKED TOPICS  ▬▬▬▬▬
This class can be taken on its own, but is best combined with Part 1:

I also do a simpified version for younger children or absolute beginners.
