Geomorphology Assignment

Rating
0.0 stars

This was an assignment for students in two parts:

(1) for a given week, students sign up for a landform that pertains to the processes we’ll be studying (e.g. landslides, streams, volcanoes, etc…). The student will use wikipedia, govt. agency websites, or primary sources to present a “show and tell” of the landform including 4 things:
a) describe the process by which that feature is formed,
b) give an example of where it can be found,
c) find 3 pictures of the landform, &
d) sketch (or find a depiction) of what the feature would look like on a topographic contour map.

(2) Students will take their presentations and use them to create pages on a Google Sites webpage that will become an online textbook. Students will be able to use the book to study for quizzes on the landforms.

(3) Students will read and leave comments on 2 other students’ pages to provide constructive feedback to help improve the textbook’s content and readability.

Learning Objectives: Students gain oral and written communication skills by presenting and documenting/sharing their research. Students will describe the shape of landforms and connect landforms with the processes responsible for their formation by learning from each other and from doing their own research.
