Professor Lisa Skinner, Senior Lecturer from Northern Arizona University spoke with us on November 19th about her journey creating the geology course Living On The Edge that is now part of the Inspark Teaching Network and available to adopt and adapt.
Prof, Skinner, on her experience producing this course: "For those who are interested in creating a course it's been quite an enlightening experience that has really informed my teaching. So its both a personal and professional journey!"
The Inspark Teaching Network has partnered with Northern Arizona University (NAU) to bring you a new course promoting active learning using an inquiry-based curriculum. The course is called Living on the Edge: Geologic Risk on Earth, and is an introductory, liberal studies geology course centered on the question: “Where on Earth is the safest place to live?".
