Astronomy in-class activity: geo-atmospheric cycles and histories

Astronomy 210 In-class activity 23 v.13.06.10, fall semester 2013
Cuesta College, San Luis Obispo, CA

Students find their assigned groups of three to four students, and work cooperatively on an in-class activity worksheet comparing the geological and atmospheric cycle histories of Earth, Venus, and Mars. Students are already familiar with the Earth's cycles from a previous learning cycle and quiz, such that if an entry is to be used more than once, then it should appear in the same box on other planets as it does on the Earth (e.g. "CO2").

Students apply the individual effects of distance from sun and presence of greenhouse gases, but may result in more than one plausible result for the questions on the third page, as comparing the relative amounts of competing effects is not covered in the scope of this course.
