Geology K - 12 Outreach

 

Welcome to the Environmental Engineering and Earth Sciences Department's Education Outreach site. In collaboration with other science outreach programs at Clemson University, we offer a variety of professional development opportunities for K-12 teachers interested in geoscience or environmental education.  We also host a series of downloadable standards-based curriculum supplements and teaching modules, and provide links to other classroom resources of use to both formal and informal educators.
