scientific reasoning scientific methodLooking to elevate your organization, and bring it to the next level? Bring on learners from College of the Rockies to be your learner-consultants, in a project-based experience. Learners will work on one main project over the experience of the semester, connecting with you as needed with virtual communication tools.
Learners in this program/experience will investigate Earth history, planetary materials, and examine how the Earth changes during extreme events. Using this information, learners can integrate elements of geography, geology, climate change awareness and environmental science into business websites, handbooks, product information and marketing materials.
Geology is an integral part of food chains, since the parent material of a soil is rock, and this provides the basis for biogeochemical cycles and soil fertility. Environmental Geologists study the resilience of food chains and the processes that affect drought, hydrology and water resources.
Gemstones are mined in various regions. Gemstone locations are related to geology. For example, most diamonds were brought to the surface of the Earth by ancient volcanoes, and this is the reason why diamonds are often found near areas of former igneous activity.
Metals, minerals and commercially-viable ores are mined at a given location, and understanding the principles of exploration geology allows for efficient extraction of materials such as oil and gas. Without geological extraction of materials, products such as your smartphone or most electronic circuits would not be possible.
Planetary history influences the lives of all humans, plants and animals on or near the surface of the Earth. An understanding of geology and geological processes is therefore important for all interactions, from tourism to commercial business enterprises.
Apprenant.es
Deliverables are negotiable, and will seek to align the needs of the learners and the organization.
Some final project deliverables might include:
- A 10-15 minute presentation on key findings and recommendations
- A detailed report including their research, analysis, insights and recommendations
There will be a final presentation and/or poster session in December at the College of the Rockies.

Exigances
Learners in groups of 3-5 will work with your company to identify your needs and provide actionable recommendations, based on their in-depth research and analysis.
Project activities that learners can complete may include, but are not limited to:
- Understanding the general geology of a region and identifying hazards, risks and relationships.
- Identifying or visualizing the geology of a place for documentation or civil engineering purposes.
- Creating opportunities to communicate geoghraphical features or geoheritage of a community or region.
Past projects have included artistic representations of geology and geoheritage; reports of the geology of a region; literature reviews to identify hazards and risks; and original research related to photographing, mapping and illustrating geological formations and areas.
