Natural Resources Mini-Research Project part of Pedagogy in Action:Library:Indoor Labs:Examples
This activity is a mini-research project in which students independently investigate the variety of natural resources mined from the Earth and the broader implications of this mining. Students then give very short presentations of their findings to the class as a whole.

Principles of Biostratigraphy and Relative Age Dating part of Pedagogy in Action:Library:Indoor Labs:Examples
This is a worksheet-based class activity that provides students with a basic introduction to the principles of sedimentation, stratigraphy, biostratigraphy, graphic correlation, and using the fossil record to develop a geologic timescale.

Absolute Dating part of Pedagogy in Action:Library:Indoor Labs:Examples
In this activity students create a proxy for radioactive decay in the classroom to understand the mathematical principles behind radiometric dating, and apply various absolute dating methods to solve example geologic problems.
