Earth’s changing landscape

The landscape of Earth has been formed over millions of years and is under constant change. Some of those changes occur so slowly that you might not even know it is even happening!

Students will explore the driving forces of erosion and identify the impact it has on our landscape through visiting Woowookarung regional park and a Virtual Reality experience. Working as geologists, students will sort and classify rock samples using observable features; they will discover how rocks change over time and how this can give us a glimpse into Earth’s dynamic history. Students will use STEM skills to engineer solutions to combat erosion where human activity has altered the otherwise natural process.
