These courses are being sponsored by the Rocky Mountain Region of the Petroleum Technology Transfer Council.

This course addresses Standard 5 of the Colorado Science Standards (students know and understand interrelationships among science, technology, and human activity, and how they can affect the world) as it applies to energy resources. Integrates geography, math, economics, and social and environmental issues with traditional geological concepts for a look at real-life geology. The six-week module allows your students an opportunity to apply problem-solving skills while using real data from industry in searching for a natural resource.

Each teacher who successfully completes this course will receive the curriculum notebook with background material and activities and a resource kit of materials to teach the activities. The kit is valued at $400 and contains oil samples, core sample, slides, overheads, maps and seismic charts, microfossils and a complete "Gushers 'n Dusters" simulation game.
