This course introduces Elementary Teaching candidates to essential earth science, chemistry and physics concepts through hands-on learning and short lectures. The instructor aims to model ways in which material can be taught. The class meets twice a week for 1 hr 50 mins, and usually includes at least one field trip when taught by Dr. Pound.
Students in this course should access course information through D2L-Brightspace.
