Geology+Cafe

Geology Cafe Menu 1. Is this to address rocks/minerals, plate tectonics, earthquakes and volcanoes all together? 2. Whoever decides to work on this page will decided what this looks like. If someone wants a single topic, just create a new page!

3. How about placing tally marks next to each topic listed, to see which ones are most desired. After a bit of time to see a pattern, then each favored topic could be assigned a new page (as suggested). 4. On each page, I would expect that a lesson, demo, activity or resource would be mentioned under the appropriate section (Appetizers, etc.), perhaps with a link to an online source, or to a posted page for that item. How does this sound? I have a fairly narrow interest here, with materials and ideas for fossils and age-dating, so I would hope that someone with a broader range of interests (and willing to spend some time on this) will actually do the organizing.

(I bought the Adobe program so I could edit pdf fliles but I have to download a patch for Vista.) 6. The Geology Cafe stuff is amazing. I am using almost every bit of it. I like that you have a variety of computer ready stuff as well as things that do not require a computer. N. McDevitt

The topics I saw listed throughout the listserv are (please edit this list to add, combine or subtract (strikethrough?)):
 * plate tectonics - there is a separate page for this topic
 * volcanoes
 * earthquakes - this topic is on the plate tectonics page
 * rock cycle
 * weathering
 * erosion
 * soils
 * fossils - I believe there is a whole cafe for this one topic. Not much there - just a title. Anyone want to start building that topic?
 * earth history - Including geological age-dating?
 * layers of the earth

+Glaciers? + planetary geology? +Minerals? + Geological ages and age-dating?
