Hydroelectricity - Catch The Wave!

This is a 10-minute video I put together for my Global Environmental Science class. Using iMovie, I was able to combine clips and music from YouTube and original sources to make a fun film that shows how hydropower is created and what the pros and cons of hydro are. Enjoy!

Learn About Rock Types

After a month away, I am back with more. I apologize, but school has had me busy and I let this drop. The good news that I have been busy creating content for my classes, and some of it is making its way here. 

The first is a presentation on rock types. It was made using Google Docs presentation software and came out pretty good I think. Click the link below to learn more about sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks.
