Joint Field Trip to San Andreas Fault
Saturday, March 25, 2017, 8 am – 2 pm
•
25 high school students and their teachers
•
5 community college students and their
professor
•
1 CSUSB master’s student
•
1 professional geology (CSUSB alumnus)
•
½ mile hike to fault from CSUSB
•
Drone demonstration
•
Lunch-time speakers on graduate school
and on careers in geology
•
Discussion of local geoscience issues
relevant to our communities
•
Tour of seismically retrofitted buildings at
CSUSB
Photo taken by drone
Multi-levelResearch Teams
Garlock fault paleoseismic trench
•
March 2018 (Spring break)
•
NSF-funded research project
•
M.S. thesis field work for Kyle Peña
•
Nine other CSUSB students hired as field
assistants
•
three other M.S. students
•
six undergraduate geology majors
•
70% are from under-represented ethnic
groups
•
Two Ph.D. students from USC
•
Three faculty collaborators (CSUSB, USC,
University of Sheffield)
Service Learning
•
CSUSB undergraduate geology majors
can earn service learning credit for
leading or participating in geoscience
outreach events for K-12 students
•
Hikes from CSUSB to the San Andreas
fault
•
Presentations in classrooms
•
CSUSB students attending field trips led
by high school teachers as “resident
experts”
Other Ideas Under Consideration
•
Joint visits to dinner meetings of local professional
organizations
•
Joint service learning projects focused on local geoscience
issues
•
Formation of an inter-institutional Faculty Learning Community (“Map
Your Hazards” at Etiwanda High School (EHS), Chaffey Community
College and CSUSB.
•
CSUSB Geology club up a booth at Etiwanda H.S. to provide information
on geology programs and geoscience careers to EHS students
•
CSUSB M.S. student presentations onpaleoseismic research to the
Etiwanda H.S. Geology club and Community Emergency Response Team
(CERT) club
For these joint activities, we are focusing on high school students who have already expressed an interest in the geoscience, such as those who participate in the Earth Science or CERT clubs at Etiwanda high school.
Support students through educational and career transitions via collaborative initiatives with educational institutions, professional societies, and local professionals. Activities include field trips, research projects, service learning, and potential joint projects to enhance geoscience education and career pathways.
