  • Critical Thinking
    • CLO 1: 1.0 The student shall: be able to clearly communicate in writing, meaningful information derived from course related reading assignments, lectures and lecture demonstrations, and any other methods used to convey subject information (maps, charts, drawings, pictures, paintings, internet sources, graphs, databases, etc.) to meet the required course outcomes benchmarks outlined in Units 2 through 10 of this course outline.
    • CLO 2: 2.0 Students will be able to identify the major historical figures of geology, list the accomplishments of each, and define and correctly use the basic terms describing the materials and structure of planet Earth.
    • CLO 3: 3.0 The students should be able to list and identify sedimentary rocks and interpret their mode of formation as they relate to the laws and principles governing the formation of sediments and the processes of sedimentation and lithification.
    • CLO 4: 4.0 Students will identify the key components of the Theory of Plate Tectonics and will identify it as a unifying theory that has revolutionized geology.
