Welcome to AIDE Earth Science Lab area:
You must first complete the Lab Safety investigation.
Then you must complete 16 additional investigations for the course
credit. Four each quarter(.25) credits. Each lab has a few questions to answer
after completing the procedure for the lab. We currently offer 28 labs to choose
from, two found in each chapter of the book and then 0 others not in your text
book. It is also an option for you to develop your own investigation. Your investigation
must be associated with the materials in the chapter and MUST BE APPROVED BY
YOUR INSTRUCTOR PRIOR TO YOUR INVESTIGATION. You can contact him at jmarley@kyu.yksd.com
