MARGINS Data in the Classroom
MARGINS has been awarded an NSF Course, Curriculum, and Laboratory Improvement (CCLI) grant to develop web-based undergraduate classroom teaching modules, in cooperation with the Science Education Resource Center at Carleton College.
As a part of this collaboration, a series of workshops for researchers and educators has been conducted. These workshops have facilitated the creation of a body of teaching activities called Mini-Lessons which are learning materials that repurpose data and resources developed through MARGINS for use in examining earth processes in undergraduate classrooms from a multidisciplinary perspective.
Mini-Lessons
- What are Mini-Lessons: Learn more about the aims and characteristics of the mini-lessons.
- Mini-Lesson Collection: Browse through the set of mini-lessons that have been contributed so far.
- Submit a Mini-Lesson: Share a mini-lesson of your own to the collection.
- Assessing Mini-Lessons: Provide feedback on mini-lessons in the collection.
