Tornado!: An Event-Based Science Module

In Gold Rush! you will work in a cooperative team, taking the role of a partner in a mining company that is interested in reopening abandoned mines. You will watch part of a television program dramatizing the discovery of gold in California in 1848 and read newspaper articles from that period. With your team, you will then tackle an exciting, real-life task that will help you learn more about rocks and minerals. In a role as a mining production/operations manager, mining engineer, geologist, chemist, or environmental hazards manager, you will analyze geologic, environmental, and financial data to help you decide which of several mines to reopen. "In the News" and "Discovery File" articles will help you understand the environmental impact of the mining process and how the discovery of gold in California affected the westward movement in the United States. In "Student Voices," real students who have tried panning for gold will tell you their stories. In "On the Job" features, mining professionals will give you inside information to help you complete your task.
