FAQ


How is this course different than your 4th/5th-grade Earth Science course?

Geoscience is targeted at the middle school Next Generation Science Standards, while Earth Science was aimed at the NGSS for grades 4 and 5. You can think of Geoscience as a second semester of Earth Science. The Geoscience course also pairs well with the Astronomy course in fulfilling the Middle School Earth and Space Sciences Standards.

Is the course live or recorded?

It's all recorded or self-paced. The course was originally taught as a live course in the spring of 2026.
