Ideas for how to embed energy (S.T.S.) concepts into traditional introductory geoscience courses. Integrating Energy Concepts into Introductory Geoscience Courses a 61kB Microsoft Word file uploaded May19 09 by Katharine Ellis [file 16395] Edit
This is an in-progress compilation of simple, inexpensive, modular, inquiry-based laboratory experiments or demonstrations, from online or printed sources. These can potentially be used in a variety of settings and lessons for learning about some basic thermodynamic and other physical principles of energy sources and energy resources.
