1 A Correlation of Pearson 12 th Edition 2015 Colorado Academic Standards
2 Introduction This document demonstrates the alignment between, 12 th Edition, 2015, and the, Earth Systems Science. Correlation page references are Student Edition. The 12th edition of, like its predecessors, is for students taking their first and perhaps only class in geology. The text is intended to be a meaningful, nontechnical survey for students with little background in science. Usually students are taking this class to meet a portion of their school s general requirements. In addition to being informative and up-to-date, a major goal of is to meet the need of beginning students for a readable and user-friendly text; a text that is a highly usable tool for learning the basic principles and concepts of geology The Pearson Advantage Three themes that recur throughout the text (Earth as a System, People and the Environment, and Understanding Earth) help to organize and connect concepts that may otherwise seem disparate. Revised content including a new chapter on climate change. SmartFigures: This edition has more than 100 figures distributed through each chapter. The art comes alive when the Quick Response code is scanned to a mobile device. Thirteen video field trips scattered throughout the text relates to chapter content. 2
