Concept surveys in geology

We have utilized questions from the geoscience concept inventory in developing our concept inventory questions, and are contributing questions to the GCI's further development.

The departmental goal was to develop a bank of valid and reliable questions that assess babyÖ±²¥app learning goals, and that incorporate significant student learning difficulties and misconceptions.

Student attitudes assessment in geology

The colorado learning attitude about science survey (CLASS) was initially developed for use in physics to assess student attitudes effectively in multiple undergraduate classes.  Currently two versions are being developed for potential use in a wide range of geological and earth system courses. The class-geol version is designed for courses that emphasize earth materials and process. The class-eos version is currently being developed in collaboration with the earth and atmospheric sciences department at british columbia for courses that emphasize the interaction between humans and earth, oceanic, and atmospheric systems.
