Encourage students’ curiosity, help them sharpen their skills of observation and interpretation, foster their development of science knowledge, and share with them the excitement of exploring Earth and the solar system by participating in this course.
edium aevum -- Medieval or The
Middle Ages. We think of knights in shining armor, lavish banquets,
wandering minstrels, kings, queens, bishops, monks, pilgrims,
and glorious pageantry.

heroic, entertaining, and romantic. In reality, life in the
Middle Ages, a period that extended from approximately the
fifth century to the fifteenth century in Western Europe,
was sometimes all these things, as well as harsh, uncertain,
and often dangerous.
