Download or read book Exploring Physical Geography written by Robert V. Rohli, Professor and published by McGraw-Hill Education. This book was released on 2017-02-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stephen Reynolds, author of the highly successful Exploring Geology, brings his ground-breaking, visually spectacular approach to Exploring Physical Geography. Intended for an introductory geography course, such as Physical Geography, Reynolds Exploring Physical Geography promotes inquiry and science as an active process. It encourages student curiosity and aims to activate existing student knowledge by posing the title of every two-page spread and every subsection as a question. In addition, questions are dispersed throughout the book. Integrated into the book are opportunities for students to observe patterns, features, and examples before the underlying concepts are explained. That is, we employ a learning-cycle approach where student exploration precedes the introduction of geographic terms and the application of knowledge to a new situation. Exploring Physical Geography introduces terms after students have an opportunity to observe the feature or concept that is being named. This approach is consistent with several educational philosophies, including a learning cycle and just-in-time teaching. Research on learning cycles shows that students are more likely to retain a term if they already have a mental image of the thing being named (Lawson, 2003). Also, the figure-based approach in this book allows terms to be introduced in their context rather than as a definition that is detached from a visual representation of the term. We introduce new terms in italics rather than in boldface, because boldfaced terms on a textbook page cause students to immediately focus mostly on the terms, rather than build an understanding of the concepts. Featuring more than 2,500 photographs and illustration, Exploring Physical Geography engages students with strong visuals, unique two-page spreads, and Before You Leave This Page objectives.

Book excerpt: This is a discount Black and white version. Some images may be unclear, please see BCCampus website for the digital version.This book was born out of a 2014 meeting of earth science educators representing most of the universities and colleges in British Columbia, and nurtured by a widely shared frustration that many students are not thriving in courses because textbooks have become too expensive for them to buy. But the real inspiration comes from a fascination for the spectacular geology of western Canada and the many decades that the author spent exploring this region along with colleagues, students, family, and friends. My goal has been to provide an accessible and comprehensive guide to the important topics of geology, richly illustrated with examples from western Canada. Although this text is intended to complement a typical first-year course in physical geology, its contents could be applied to numerous other related courses.

Download or read book Introduction to Earth Science written by Austin Boyd and published by . This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to Earth Science helps students learn about the physical processes of Earth, and, in some cases, how these processes can affect and influence lift. The book examines crystallization and sedimentation to reveal the earth's past, ocean and wind circulation to help students interpret and understand climate, plate tectonics to explain natural phenomena like earthquakes, volcanoes, and mountain building, and more. The book begins by presenting students with information on the formation of Earth and an overview of the elements that make up the planet. In later chapters, students learn how to identify minerals and elements, how the science of plate tectonics has developed and changed over time, how magma forms, and how sedimentary rocks can help us understand how climates have evolved around the world. Additional chapters are devoted to exploring earthquakes, structural geology, geologic time, the ocean, and the atmosphere. The text closes with a chapter addressing the development of astronomy. Written to provide students with an accessible and complete primer on Earth's processes, Introduction to Earth Science is an ideal text for foundational courses in earth science and geoscience. Austin Boyd is a professor of physical science at Santa Fe College.
