Teacher's
Manual
This is a draft version
of a teacher's manual for the "Our Dynamic Planet" CD. I welcome
feedback. The handbook includes assignment descriptions, group activities,
and scoring rubrics that are directly applicable for introductory earth
science classes. I have also included some ideas on science rhetoric
that you might find interesting.
* The teacher's manual files are also included on the "Our Dynamic Planet"
CDROM.
