GEOL 210: Introduction to Earth Science
Effective Jan 1, 2009 View History
Description:
Focuses on earth science content and scientific investigation and experimentation abilities required for the multiple-subject teaching credential. Topics include Earth's atmosphere and water, structure and composition of the solid Earth, processes that change the Earth (with emphasis on plate tectonics and California geology), Earth's resources, and Earth's place in the solar system and universe. (Offered fall and spring semesters.)
