The midterm for Earth Science is a comprehensive examination of material from the topics in "Introduction to Earth Science" and "Astronomy." Below, you will find a breakdown of individual topics and how they are presented on the examination. Obviously, you should concentrate your studying on the material listed below - if the topic doesn't appear in the list, then it is not on the midterm. While the material may seem to be quite extensive, it is actually repetitive. Your studies should concentrate on your chapter readings; homework questions; video labs; labs; and lecture notes. As usual, you will find all material on-line.
The written midterm examination consists of three (3) distinct sections:
In addition to the written examination, there is a lab component that will be based on the labs and video labs we completed during our class lectures. Suggested studying includes reviewing your lab handouts and returned lab reports. The topic for the midterm lab will be revealed at the conclusion of the written examination. Note: the midterm lab component is an individual lab exercise - you will have no partners.
