This course was great for teachers of Earth Science who want to gain a better understanding of Geology. I appreciate that the assignments are usable in the classroom, and I enjoyed the enthusiasm of James Cotter's lessons. I would definitely recommend this course to other educators wanting to grow more knowledgeable about Geology.

I highly recommend this course to anyone wishing to brush up on their Geology knowledge. The video lectures are highly engaging and informative, and the assignments are relevant and fun to complete. I plan to incorporate the materials and resources that I created into my middle school Earth Science class curriculum.

I had technical problems, some reflective forums didn't stay put. But I only lost work on one occassion. The auto-save feature held the work and I had to resubmit. So other than a little panic and a burst of blood pressure -- it was okay. I really like the guidebook for this course, I checked nearly all the additional reading selections.

This course served as a great refresher of geological concepts. I really liked how it took those concepts and discussed the practical applications of them, which is something that I can totally take back to my students in my classroom.
