I am also using their geology unit Tectonic Fury. To supplement my own curriculum for earthquakes, volcanoes and plate tectonics. This resource is fille...

What new learning or reflections have you taken from this module? One of the most interesting things that I learned about in this module was the role of Cyanobacteria. That I thi...
