Though geology is primarily a field science and the most effective method of study is in the field, most earth science teachers have little if any such experience. This program is designed to help teachers develop field skills and to provide them supplies, resource materials, and field activities that can be utilized in their earth science classes in Arkansas and Missouri. The program will consist of two segments. The first portion will introduce earth science teachers to as much diverse geology as possible to develop their field skills. The course will begin at the University of Arkansas and Missouri campuses with a three day intensive review and an introduction to the geology of the field area, Lander, Wyoming. In Wyoming the participants will work in field projects, and a resource unit on a field topic in geology. The second portion of the program will occur in Arkansas and Missouri and involve the teachers in applying the skills learned in field camp to develop resource materials and field activities for their earth science classes. These reports will be edited and printed as a fieldguide to the geology of the state.

尽管地质学主要是一门野外科学，最有效的研究方法是在野外，但大多数地球科学教师几乎没有这样的经验。 该计划旨在帮助教师培养实地技能，并向他们提供可在阿肯色州和密苏里州的地球科学课程中使用的用品、资源材料和实地活动。 该计划将由两部分组成。 第一部分将向地球科学教师介绍尽可能多的地质学知识，以培养他们的现场技能。 该课程将从阿肯色大学和密苏里大学校园开始，进行为期三天的集中复习，并介绍怀俄明州兰德地区的地质情况。 在怀俄明州，参与者将参与实地项目和地质学实地主题的资源单元。 该计划的第二部分将在阿肯色州和密苏里州进行，教师们将运用在野外营中学到的技能为他们的地球科学课程开发资源材料和实地活动。 这些报告将被编辑和印刷，作为该州地质的实地指南。
