Teaching About Rates and Time
At the 2012 annual fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union, Karen Viskupic, Mark Schmitz and Maya Elrick convened a session focusing on teaching about rates and time. Here are links to their abstracts and, in some cases, electronic posters, hosted on the AGU website.
