published Nov 4, 2008 2:00pm
Two new modules are available in the Teaching Sedimentary Geology website.
  • Using Physical Models to Teach Sedimentary Geology, which includes the "Jurassic Tank" (also known as the Experimental Earthscape Facility) and the Desktop Delta. This module contains descriptions of these two types of models, example activities and videos taken while the models are running.
  • Stratigraphic "Up" Tutorial. Have your students ever been stumped by which way is up in a sedimentary rock? This tutorial guides students through several types of indicators and how they are used. There is even a short quiz to see if your students can tell which way is up.
