© NERC All rights reserved The new BGS Strategy: to demonstrate the pro-active delivery of applied geoscience knowledge and services to universities whilst … effectively communicating the significance and benefits of these models BGS must improve the way we communicate geoscience in a useful and usable format for academics who are the next generation of geoscientists Produce innovative activities to engage young people and work in collaboration with the university sector to encourage the use of our data, information and expertise in support of teaching and research

© NERC All rights reserved The ideas are all in here…

© NERC All rights reserved Spatial Thinking Observing, manipulating, interpreting and predicting. Schema Theory Learning rules of thumb (schema); new information is assimilated into existing schema. Authentic Inquiry Student-centred, active learning that engages students in questioning, critical thinking and problem solving.

© NERC All rights reserved Student Exercises Using a student-tailored user guide let the student learn how to use the 3D model software, then let the student explore the geology shown in the models. (Exploration Phase) Ask the student to see if they can identify certain rock sequences, the succession of rocks, and structures or faulting. Can they determine the dip and strike of certain beds? Can they draw a cross section of this area and then compare it with what the model produces? (Terms and Concepts Introduction Phase) Can the student hypothesise what may happen to the geology in this area in the future? Do they think this would be a good area for the disposal of waste? (The Application Phase)
