Exploring Earth
The investigations and visualizations on this site were designed to accompany Earth Science, a high school textbook authored by Spaulding and Namowitz and published by McDougal Littell. The Web site was developed by TERC, a non-profit educational research and development firm in collaboration with McDougal Littell. Investigations are Internet-based activities that use animations, interactive graphics, and unique imagery to help students gather information about a particular Earth science theme, issue, or concept. For each investigation, students examine a sequence of Web pages on which they manipulate graphics or interpret image data. The pages contain background text and questions to help guide students' thinking. Many of the investigations end with a page of Web links for further investigation. |
