Design and Implementation of course materials
Two-week petrology module on UHP metamorphism developed as part of a ‘Broader Impacts’ segment of an NSF grant. The one-week lab utilizes samples collected from the Western Gneiss Region UHP metamorphic terrane. The lab activity and accompanying instructor materials were designed in consultation with the Science and Education Resource Center (SERC, Northfield, MN), and include 15 sets of petrographic thin sections, hand samples, and accompanying EPMA analyses available to undergraduate petrology professors.
