(click to pause music) Rock Camp - Geology Field Work for WV Teachers         These West Virginia  classroom teachers are investigating geology in the field near Spruce Knob.  They are learning scientific techniques to take back to the students in their schools. Some of the skills they practiced were strike and dip using a Brunton compass, identifying crystal size, performing acid tests for calcite, interpreting weathering patterns, and analzying sediment depositions in rock layers.  Check out the WV Geologic and Economic Survey GeoEducational Resources for great free teacher resources including teaching guides, maps, animations, and a whole library of graphics depicting geologic formations and tectonic processes.
