课程名称:动态地球:教育工作者课程 课程概述: 美国自然历史博物馆(AMNH)推出的《动态地球:教育工作者课程》为学生提供了地球起源与演化的概述。课程依据新发布的下一代科学标准,探讨地质时间尺度、放射性测年,以及科学家如何“解读岩石”。学员将了解过去40亿年中地球的重大变化,包括生命演化如何影响地球大气。此外,参与者还将研究本地的地质历史,将对动态地球的理解以及教学资源、讨论问题和作业带入自己的教学实践中。 课程大纲: 1. 课程名称:引言与地质时间的谜团 课程描述:你将探索科学家如何研究岩石记录,以确定地球的地质历史。 2. 课程名称:大气的演变 课程描述:你将了解光合作用生物如何改变海洋和大气中氧气的浓度,以及这些变化如何在岩石记录中反映出来。你还将熟悉下一代科学标准与本周内容的关联,最后完成一项书面作业:分析一个地方的地质特征。 3. 课程名称:板块构造:山脉形成 课程描述:你将学习对流如何导致地球地幔中固体岩石的流动,以及地球的板块运动如何形成山脉。你还将学习如何识别和解决学生关于板块构造的常见误解。 4. 课程名称:板块构造:地震 课程描述:你将了解地震风险。通过关于孟加拉国地震风险的多媒体教学案例,你将学习科学家如何定义和评估地质事件的风险,并学习如何将这一或类似的教学案例应用于你的学生中。
Name:Introduction & The Mystery of Geologic Time
Description:You will explore the ways scientists study the rock record to determine the geologic history of the Earth.
Name:Evolution of the Atmosphere
Description:You will learn how the evolution of photosynthetic life changed the concentration of oxygen in the oceans and atmosphere, and how this is reflected in the rock record. You will also become familiar with how the Next Generation Science Standards connect to this week’s content. Finally, you will complete a written assignment: an analysis of a local geologic feature.
Name:Plate Tectonics: Mountain Building
Description:You will learn how convection causes solid rock to flow in the Earth’s mantle and how the movement of the Earth’s tectonic plates forms mountains. You will also learn how to identify and address common student misconceptions about plate tectonics.
Name:Plate Tectonics: Earthquakes
Description:You will learn about earthquake risk. Using a multimedia teaching case about earthquake risk in Bangladesh, you will learn how scientists define and assess the risk from geologic events. You will also learn how to implement this or similar teaching cases with your students.
The AMNH course The Dynamic Earth: A Course for Educators provides students with an overview of the origin and evolution of the Earth. Informed by the recently released Next Generation Science Standards, this course examines geological time scales, radiometric dating, and how scientists “read the rocks.” We will explore dramatic changes in the Earth over the last 4 billion years, including how the evolution of life on Earth has affected its atmosphere. In addition to looking at geology on a global scale, participants will take to their own backyards to explore and share their local geologic history. Course participants will bring their understanding of the dynamic Earth - along with content resources, discussion questions, and assignments - into their own teaching.
