The
Visual
Geophysical
Exploration
Environment
(VGEE)
is
a
software
tool
that
is
specially
designed
to
help
learners
visualize
complex,
multi-dimensional
geophysical
phenomena
and
connect
those
visualizations
to
fundamental
physical
principles.
The
tool
works
with
actual
data
sets
of
The
El
Nino
Southern
Oscillation.
An
additional
data
set
of
mantle
convection
will
be
available
in
the
future.

The
goal
of
this
introductory
college
level
exercise
is
to
get
students
to
characterize
the
phenomenon
of
the

hole
on
their
own.
This
is
an
inquiry-based
activity
designed
to
spark
student
interest,
curiosity,
and
a
desire
to
understand
the
causes
of
this
atmospheric
problem.
A
multitude
of
rich
data
sets
are
accessible
to
students.

Planetary
Forecaster
is
an
inquiry-based
science
curriculum
that
integrates
hands-on
lab
activities
with
the
use
of
technology
for
exploration
and
modeling.
In
this
curriculum,
students
explore
the
major
factors
leading
to
temperature
variation
around
the
globe,
and
then
use
what
they
learn
to
make
temperature
predictions
and
identify
the
habitable
areas
on
a
fictional,
newly
