Deep Earth Academy

Teaching for Science – Learning for Life

Deep Earth Academy facilitates and develops programs and materials based on scientific ocean drilling expeditions and Earth Systems Science to strengthen students’ science, mathematics, and analytical skills. Our approach includes use of authentic data, inquiry-centered activities and interdisciplinary explorations drawing from the adventures of the JOIDES Resolution ship and the earlier ocean drilling ship; the Glomar Challenger.

We invite you to join us and welcome you as a part of our community of educators. Check back here often for new resources, new opportunities for professional development, and new ways to learn about the world around us! Click to learn more about Deep Earth Academy.

Highlights:

  • Teach-It: curriculum and classroom activities for kindergarten through college level!
  • Check out the new volume of the graphic novel “Choose Your Own Tales of the Resolution – Jobs on the JR,” where students choose to follow an engineer, scientist, or welder aboard the JOIDES Resolution. This is a great tool for showing science in action and the integration of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math that happens on the ship.
  • Want a short, introductory presentation on the JR? Click here.
  • Visit the JOIDES Resolution website at www.joidesresolution.org to follow the current expedition; read blogs, post comments, watch videos, play games, and more.
  • Looking for ocean drilling data? Check out How to Access Scientific Drilling Data and Publications – the easy way (PDF)
  • What on Earth is a core? Learn more about these unique windows to Earth’s past – which provide clues to Earth’s future.
  • Order form: to get posters, pencils, DVDs and more!
