Session Description:
Goals and Objectives: (for users and creators)

    * Identify strategies for effective group work with DLESE materials
    * Identify barriers to successful collaboration, particularly those associated with the use of computers and web-based materials, and identify strategies to avoid or surmount these barriers
    * Identify pedagogical content that could (should?) be included as part of activities submitted to, or available on, DLESE
    * Identify information about cooperative learning and related pedagogical topics that could (should?) be available on DLESE (connect with Use Case for Explore Teaching Methods)
Session Agenda:
    We will begin by uncovering what participants already know, and what we would like to learn, about our session topic. We will examine, and modify if necessary, the goals and objectives of the session to reflect what issues we particularly want to discuss. From this, we will use a variety of small-group activities to explore our common interests and concerns. I would like to share some cooperative group formats (structures) that might be especially applicable to classrooms in which students are working with DLESE materials in conducting research, solving problems, or investigating academic controversies.

CRUSTAL REWORKING DURING OROGENY:
AN ACTIVE-SYSTEM HIMALAYAN PERSPECTIVE
Official words (abstract of our 1995 proposal):
...Or, in plain English:
Scientific Rationale. Nanga Parbat, the westernmost 8000 meter peak of the Himalaya, provides perhaps the world's best exposures of rocks which are being subjected to the forces and chemical processes that occur during the collision of continents. We are using Nanga Parbat as a natural laboratory to study these processes while they are still active, for Nanga Parbat is world-renowned as a site of what is, from a geologist's perspective, extraordinarily rapid uplift and erosion. Planned Measurements. To fully understand how the rocks of Nanga Parbat have been deformed and modified, we are exploying a broad variety of techniques which include structural geology and geomorphology to determine how material is entering and leaving the Nanga Parbat region, seismological and electromagnetic probes of the crust immediately beneath Nanga Parbat, and a variety of geochemical techniques to better understand how the crust of Nanga Parbat was created and is being modified. Significance of Project to Pakistan.

    The USGS historically has been active in South America, a region that has long been involved in the mineral and mining sectors. USGS has collaborated with counterpart agencies in Bolivia and Venezuela to produce mineral resource assessments of the Alti Plano in Bolivia and in the eastern part of Venezuela. Currently, workshops on human health issues related to the environment are underway in Venezuela and Chile. Suriname and Guyana are interested in promoting collaborative activities. Oil and gas assessments are of interest as well. All South American coal-bearing countries have been involved in the World Coal Inventory project.
    USGS has conducted an extensive two-year project in the Central American countries of Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Honduras on the impact and devastation created by Hurricane Mitch in October 1989. Collaborative efforts focused on hydrology (stream gage monitoring networks), biology (health of the shrimp economy in southern Honduras), and geology (health of coral reefs, landslides, earthquakes, volcanoes), along with data clearinghouse networks, satellite imagery interpretation, and training in Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Much of this work was done in close collaboration with other Federal agencies such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE).

The research officers and Board staff meet quarterly to pursue collaborative activities and to discuss various issues or topics related to sponsored research. The outcome expected from this collaboration is that the Tennessee Board of Regents’ universities will be competitive with its peers and recognized as among the top systems in providing sponsored research. One function of a university is to provide knowledge through research and innovative activities. These activities also augment instruction at the institution. Through research and public service activities, for example, many students participate in class-related projects or participate directly in a project as part of their scholarly work at the institution. Through their research offices, TBR universities also provide faculty and staff with opportunities for research and public service. Although other research, instructional/training, and public service activities are conducted by TBR universities, listed below is a summary of major activities.

    Description:
    Writing assignments:
    There are two writing assignments for this course, both very short, so they will be encouraged to work hard on them and to revise at least once. Innovation (applies to both writing assignments): I tell students at beginning of the semester that my goal is for them to improve their writing skills, so they can revise each assignment as many times as they wish, and I will record only the final grade. (In practise almost every student revises the first assignment at least once, and some up to 3 times; over half the class revises the second assignment at least once. One requirement for this to work is that the assignments must be given out quite early in the semester.) The first assignment is to write an abstract for a brief (4 page) article from the research literature, that describes a 'practical' application of several fundamental principles we have just covered in class. I hand out a xerox copy of the article without its original abstract, plus an assignment sheet that includes goals and procedures, plus a couple of example abstracts. (Everyone writes an abstract for the same article.)

    activities 1996
    Strengthening of Geophysics and integration across the boundaries of Geology and Geophysics are major aims of GEMOC. In 1996 these were advanced by:
    • funding by ARC of a Seismic Consortium headed by Flinders University with Macquarie, Monash, Sydney, Queensland and ANU as partners and with strong support from AGSO and the Australian Geodynamics CRC. A pool of seismic tomography equipment will be available for projects by Consortium members.
    • new collaboration between GEMOC and Geophysics at Sydney University has been initiated with development of a major collaborative project and application for 1998 funding.
    • a seismic study of MOHO depth in the Sydney region was set up with a Macquarie seeding grant.
    • a new 48 channel seismometer was purchased with part GEMOC funding (for research and teaching).
    • agreements were reached with the Chinese Academy of Exploration for collaborative access to extensive geophysical datasets.
    • Dr Mark Lackie and Dr Phil Schmidt initiated planning for a major new joint facility (involving CSIRO, Macquarie and other Universities including SUCOGG) for rock magnetism research.

    • the amalgamation of Geology and Geophysics at Macquarie into a single administrative unit from 1998 will facilitate closer linkages and interfacing in teaching, research and industry interaction
    • first use for a Macquarie-funded project of the pool of seismic detectors which form part of the ARC Seismic Consortium (headed by the University of Adelaide/Flinders University with Macquarie, Monash, Sydney, Queensland and ANU as partners and with strong support from AGSO and the Australian Geodynamics CRC)
    • collaboration between GEMOC and Geophysics at Sydney University has been strengthened with development of a major collaborative project and application for 1999 funding
    • the new 48 channel seismic recorder (purchased in 1997 with part GEMOC funding) was used for both research and teaching in geophysics
    • a new gravimeter and additional seismic equipment (geophones and cables) for both teaching and research were funded for 1998 through the Macquarie University Capital Equipment scheme
    • Dr Mark Lackie and Dr Phil Schmidt were successful in obtaining ARC RIEFP funding for a major new rock magnetism joint facility (involving CSIRO, and SUCOGG Universities, with Macquarie as the lead institution) for rock magnetism research

    RESEARCH THRUST 1: RESEARCH FOR ATLANTIC CANADA COMMUNITIES Major objectives to further develop Saint Mary's University as a centre of interdisciplinary and collaborative research that is directly applicable to social, economic, cultural and political issues of Atlantic Canada. to provide stable funding for the continued operation of the Gorsebrook Research Institute. to maintain a critical mass in Criminology research that will permit the development of a world-class Criminology research program to position the university to contribute to the new Partnerships for Community Economic Development Program Current strengths and role of the Research Chairs Saint Mary's is a community-based university that places great importance on its accessibility to all members of the regional community, particularly groups that have been traditionally disadvantaged. Research is one component of this community focus. Although such research may be locally based, the techniques and outcomes may have global relevance. The University has close links between its local research and its strong program in International Development. Two nodes of the community-research program are identified for development:
  • Atlantic Canada Studies . Saint Mary's University has a long established tradition of excellence in Atlantic Canada Studies and maintains the Gorsebrook Research Institute as the focus of such research. The Atlantic Canada Studies program involves more than 33 professors from 14 departments and the University offers Nova Scotia's only undergraduate degree program in Atlantic Canada Studies and the Masters program, established in 1983, remains unique in the field. It combines social scientific, ecological, and cultural-historical perspectives, and is highly research oriented. The internal strength of the program is illustrated by the fact that graduates of the program have won the Governor General's Gold Medal for the best postgraduate student for the past five successive years.

    Group History
    The scientific activity of the Marine Geology Group of the CSIC in Barcelona begins in 1980, within the Department of Stratigraphy of the University of Barcelona , led by Dr. A. Maldonado . The Group contributed to a strong impulse in the field of the Marine Geociences in Spain. Initially named as Unit of Marine Geology it was integrated in the Institute of Earth Sciences "Jaume Almera" European Scientific Committee of the Ocean Drilling Program, Advanced Study Workshops on Mediterranean Marine Geosciences IOB, SCAR, etc). On the other hand, the Group of Marine Geology of the CSIC has developed a work of great transcendency in both basic science and marine technology, obtaining its best results in main projects of international scientific cooperation. Among these stand out the " Ocean Drilling Program InterRidge and "Tredmar" supported by the Unesco, the European Science Foundation and the EU "Mast" Program.
    Research Topics and Objectives
    The main research topics and objectives in focus in the Group of Marine Geology of the CSIC of Barcelona are the following: (1) Shelf-Ocean Transfer influence in sedimentary processes and models of particulate matter and associated pollutants in the marine environment. (2)

    , Bates College The Botany Database, developed by Barry Logan (Bowdoin College) and Robert Thomas (Bates College) in collaboration with the Educational Technology Center (Bowdoin College), was designed to provide students with access to images (along with supporting information) used in lecture and laboratory sessions of botany courses. The WEB-based database has been used extensively in several courses at Bates and Bowdoin Colleges and student feedback has been positive.
    In the past year, we improved the Botany Database by initiating a comprehensive floristic survey of Bowdoin College's Coastal Studies Center (directed by Jessica Brooks, a Bowdoin College undergraduate), adding records associated with Prof. Thomas' "Plants and Human Affairs" course, incorporating images from the Kate Furbish collection, and rendering the "Search" tool more specific. In the coming year, we plan to develop a quiz tool, allowing students to examine their own knowledge of selected plant species. We also will include "Quick-time VR” technology that enables a viewer to "move around" three-dimensional images of plants or plant parts from species representative of major taxa. We will also enhance the Botany Database aesthetically with a new Introductory page and overall appearance.
