1 A Correlation of Earth An Introduction to Physical Geology 2014 To Ohio s New Learning Standards for Science, 2011 Physical Geology, High School Science Inquiry and Application Course Content
2 Introduction This document demonstrates how Earth, An Introduction to, meets for Science, 2011, Physical Geology, for Grades Science Inquiry and Application references are to the Student and Teacher Edition feature and page levels. Course content references are to the chapter and section levels. This 11 th edition of Earth, An Introduction to Physical Geology, is intended to be a meaningful, nontechnical survey for students taking their first course in geology. This up-todate, informative program meets students needs with an engaging book that is a highly usable tool for learning the basic principles and concepts of geology. Distinguishing Features The main focus of the program is to promote student understanding of the basic principles of geology. The book s language is straightforward and written to be understood. Geology is highly visual, and art and photographs play a critical role in this book. Michael Collier, an award-winning geologist-photographer, brings geology alive with his contributions. New to the 11 th Edition SmartFigures; Students use their smartphones to watch art come alive with 6-7 QR codes per chapter (3-4 minute Art feature with narration) Active Learning Path; Chapters include numbered learning objectives, identified student knowledge and skills, Concept Checks, and challenging questions in the Give It Some Thought feature Eye on Earth; two to five aerial or satellite images per chapter in which students must apply basic facts and principles An Unparalleled Visual Program; new photos, satellite images, and new figures by geoscience illustrator Dennis Tasa with additional labeling MasteringGeology ; Assignable activities focused on course objectives, instructor resources, and a robust Student Study Area Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates 2
3 COURSE DESCRIPTION Physical geology is a high school level course, which satisfies Ohio Core science graduation requirements of Ohio Revised Code Section This section of Ohio law requires a three-unit course with inquiry-based laboratory experience that engages students in asking valid scientific questions and gathering and analyzing information. Physical geology incorporates chemistry, physics and environmental science and introduces students to key concepts, principles and theories within geology. Investigations are used to understand and explain the behavior of nature in a variety of inquiry and design scenarios that incorporate scientific reasoning, analysis, communication skills and real-world applications. SCIENCE INQUIRY AND APPLICATION During the years of grades 9 through 12, all students must use the following scientific processes with appropriate laboratory safety techniques to construct their knowledge and understanding in all science content areas: Identify questions and concepts that guide scientific investigations; Opportunities to address the standards in Science Inquiry and Application can be found in the end of chapter exercises Give It Some Thought.
