TOP REVIEWS FROM OUR EARTH: ITS CLIMATE, HISTORY, AND PROCESSES
A really interesting course but I definitely struggled with the assessments. Build your own earth was a really good concept at looking at different worlds, climates and changing weather patterns.
My BA 45 years ago is major in Geography and Geology. I am very happy to re-visit many of the topics with the new discoveries and theories and presentation of them in modern technology.
So informative and well-prepared learning materials for students. Thank you very much for your course.
This is very interesting and a lot of great information to help improve and balance out how we understand our earth and it's history.
