Ethan C. Campbell; Katy M. Christensen; Mikelle Nuwer; Amrita Ahuja; Owen Boram; Junzhe Liu; Reese Miller; Isabelle Osuna; Stephen C. Riser – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2025
Scientific programming has become increasingly essential for manipulating, visualizing, and interpreting the large volumes of data acquired in earth science research. Yet few discipline-specific instructional approaches have been documented and assessed for their effectiveness in equipping geoscience undergraduate students with coding skills. Here…

Christopher Lore; Hee-Sun Lee; Amy Pallant; Charles Connor; Jie Chao – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2024
As computational methods are widely used in science disciplines, integrating computational thinking (CT) into classroom materials can create authentic science learning experiences for students. In this study, we classroom-tested a CT-integrated geoscience curriculum module designed for secondary students. The module consisted of three inquiry…

Polar research plays a vital role in developing our understanding of Earth's climate system. It is intrinsically interdisciplinary, lending itself to integration into existing undergraduate courses. Here we explore introducing undergraduates to polar research through computational guided inquiry (CGI) modules taught in a variety of courses and…

Jacobs, Christian T.; Gorman, Gerard J.; Rees, Huw E.; Craig, Lorraine E. – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2016
Computer programming was once thought of as a skill required only by professional software developers. But today, given the ubiquitous nature of computation and data science it is quickly becoming necessary for all scientists and engineers to have at least a basic knowledge of how to program. Teaching how to program, particularly to those students…

Olds, Henry, Jr. – Classroom Computer News, 1983
Reviews an educationally valuable and reasonably well-designed simulation of volcanic activity in an imaginary land. VOLCANOES creates an excellent context for learning information about volcanoes and for developing skills and practicing methods needed to study behavior of volcanoes. (Author/JN)

Blanchard, Frank N. – Journal of Geological Education, 1980
Described is a computer program used to calculate d-spacings (corrected for film shrinkage) and a weighting factor for measurements made on a Debye-Scherrer film. Two purposes are listed for the computer program: time reduction and increase of computer competance. (Author/DS)
