  1. Understanding Deep EarthThursday February 18 Summary of Threaded Discussion II: What Educational Opportunities are Afforded by Study of Deep Earth Compiled by: D. Mogk

  2. Deep Earth Teaching Opportunities • A compilation of input from the threaded discussion • First step towards organizing working groups; • Identify kindred spirits • Look for opportunities to integrate across disciplines • Data! EarthScope, IRIS, HVO, EarthChem/PetDB, Anna Courtier

  3. Deep Earth Teaching Opportunities Mineral Physics Properties and processes of minerals at depth, Glenn Richard, Pam Burnley, Ben Edwards Demo to show gravity changes, Kanani Lee Integrating sub-disciplines, Wendy Panero, Laura Wetzel, Anna Courtier Phase Transitions/Discontinuities; Ann Courtier

  4. Deep Earth Teaching Opportunities Seismology EarthScope/Iris data; John Taber, Vince Cronin Tutorials on geophysical data, data products (receiver functions, shear wave splitting…) Tomograms—what are they, how do you make them, how to interpret? Ray Russo, Brennan Jordan Quantitative exercises, Anna Courtier, Catherine Cooper, Gene Humphreys Computational exercises, Mike Brudzinski Geodynamic Modeling, Gene Humphreys

  5. Deep Earth Teaching Opportunities Analytical Methods Instruments used to study deep Earth, synchrotron, multi-anvil; Glenn Richard, Dave Mogk, Kanani Lee?

  6. Deep Earth Teaching Opportunities Petrology/Geochemistry Xenoliths—EarthChem database, Ben Edwards, Dave Mogk Scientific debates (plumes), Brennan Jordan Crust/mantle evolution, connections; Catherine Cooper, Dave Mogk Isotopic tracers, Yue Cai Earth as a dynamic system, Eric Christiansen Plate boundaries, Suzanne Baldwin MELTS, Dave Mogk Modeling layered Earth (computer sim) Ben Edwards Sample collections? Ben Edwards, Dave Mogk

  7. Deep Earth Teaching Opportunities Cool Ideas Teacher preparation, Barbara Graham GIS, Barbara Graham, Declan DePaor? Deep Earth to demonstrate nature of Science, Vicki Hansen, Suzanne Baldwin Intro, non-majors; Vince Cronin, Anna Courtier, Vicki Hansen, Barbara Graham, Pam Burnley, Laura Wetzel, BenEdwards Deep Earth and GeoHazards, Glenn Richard

  8. Deep Earth Teaching Opportunities End of Day Everyone will start to prepare an “ActivitySheet” that will be the start of your new teaching activity. We will introduce the SERC Content Management System for you to upload your title and a brief description of your activity Teaching activities may take many forms; in most cases you can simply upload activity files (Word, PDF, JPEG, Excel…) needed to do the exercise. In some cases, we can provide new web-authoring space Activity is broadly defined Laboratory exercise, problem set, “Hot Topic” with literature, Visualization collection with annotation, class demonstration or experiment….
