Welcome to The Earth Science Teacher.
This is the quarterly member’s journal of GEOetc.com. Each quarter a new topic is covered that is relevant to the teaching of Earth Science. It is not full of ‘research papers’ – it is practical information and ideas for people teaching Earth science anywhere on the planet. It normally contains background information, activity ideas, links to stimulus materials (like videos) and a Member Speaks section where a GEOetc member talks about their experience related to that topic.
Below you can download a free issue. To get more, just become a GEOetc Member. It is NOT expensive – and not only do you get The Earth Science Teacher, but you get full access to all the Member resources (activities, demonstrations, videos, posters and more). See the range of resources here.
