"The educator guide features exercises grouped into five units: 1) introduction to geologic processes, 2) impact cratering activities, 3) planetary atmosphere, 4) planetary surfaces, and 5) geologic mapping." It was published in 1998. Many exercises involve analog models of planetary processes; others involve studying maps and/or aerial photographs. The pdf file appears to contain all of the aerial photos and other materials needed for the exercises.
