Geology for the general sciences
Abstract
Scope of Study: This study was concerned with the presentation of an outline for teachers to use in a General Science course to supplement that unit covering the earth sciences. Findings and Conclusions: Most students become interested in a subject only when their curiosity is aroused. Through the use or rock and mineral specimens it should be very easy to arouse that curiosity, and instill a desire in the youngster to find out more about how they were formed. Field trips constitute a major part of a unit dealing with geology and they must be carefully planned ahead of time. As the youngster collects and identifies, his attention then is directed toward those areas of rock formation, deposition, erosion, and geologic time.
