Planet earth is explored through Essentials of Geology which I began by selecting chapter one, which is the earth in context illustrated with a Hubble Space Telescope picture looking into the night sky. Finishing chapter one, then exploring the key terms at the end of the chapter, which took about an hour, I realized that Essentials of Geology had not only been extremely interesting and educational, but should also receive additional recognition through your web site award. So I am making a nomination. Further information is found below.
Over the course of two weeks on a regular basis, I finished the nineteen chapters and took the self study tests for each chapter. I also completed the crossword puzzle for each chapter which includes a check for correct answers, reinforcing what was learned.
The animations were very good. Feature articles, earth science news and the news archive gave me a break in between chapter study.
