American Geological Institute Educational Resources

http://www.agiweb.org/education/resource/index.html

The American Geological Institute (AGI) has assembled a mix of resources for earth science educators, including promotional videos such as "Why Earth Science?" and a world image
bank. The image bank can be found at the "Earth Science World Image Bank" tab, and it contains over 6,000 images. Visitors can browse the images or type in keywords. The site also includes videos which originally appeared in the online version of "Earth" magazine. These short subjects cover "Black Gold Agriculture", "Platinum from the Deep", and "State of the Nation's Ecosystems". Visitors can also read their publication "Pulse of Earth Science Education", which offers an overview of the trends in the field.
