The research tools that form the focus of this collection would include equipment (e.g. diamond anvil cells), detection technology (e.g. xray diffraction), and beamlines (e.g. the National Synchrotron Light Source)

Materials in this collection would include imagery, animations, interactive modules, and other resources that could serve as a basis for developing presentations and educational modules. Educational activities based on this collection could include virtual laboratory tours.]]> Glenn Richard 1266512400 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6737 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6758 Wendy Mao 1266524940 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6758 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6759 Anna Courtier 1266525360 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6759 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6760 Eric Christiansen 1266525360 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6760 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6763 1. Follow-up my presentation with the creation of a structured in-class debate activity on the mantle plume debate.
2. Create a very simple tomography exercise, geared for non-science majors (GEO-101) where they adjust grid blocks to slow, normal, or fast to fit delay time data. This might start as a paper exercise, but I would aspire to make it an interactive applet (though I do not have the programming expertise to do that at this point).]]> Brennan Jordan 1266526200 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6763 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6766

I'd also be interested in working on a higher level exercise that focused more on the limitations and constraints on tomographic models, with the goal of the students being able to interpret tomographic cross sections.]]> John Taber 1266533640 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6773 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6774 Catherine Cooper 1266533880 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6774 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6819 Vicki Hansen 1266587700 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6819 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6825 Mike Williams 1266592440 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6825 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6827
Do you have your general lecture on high pressure techniques in PowerPoint, pdf, or another format that you could make available for me (or us) to look at? This type of material would be very useful either in its entirety or as separate components that could be incorporated into online resources designed to teach about high pressure research tools. For example, we might combine it with the Bragg's Law Applet and design some student activities around it.]]> Glenn Richard 1266593880 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6827 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6828 Vicki Hansen 1266594720 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6828 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6835 Brennan Jordan 1266605820 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6835 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6995 Dave Mogk 1266847800 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post6995 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post7028 Dave - what an interesting idea about the Cretaceous Interior Seaway! I just taught that last semester and you're completely right - there's got to be more to it than just growing ice caps. ]]> Catherine Cooper 1266875700 http://serc.carleton.edu/NAGTWorkshops/deepearth10/discussions/activity_develo.html#post7028
