Notes
on formats and version numbers of the NeMO Curriculum:
FORMATS:
The Powerpoint files have the best resolution, the HTML files the least.
The HTML pages are the same as available under the tables of contents
links above, but can be downloaded to your hard disk and then viewed off-line
with any web browser. Part 3 is available in both Powerpoint 98 and Powerpoint
2000 (or above) formats because they embed movies differently. Pick the
one that is right for your version of Powerpoint.
VERSION 2b (December 2003): The only change from version 2a to
2b is some corrections to the temperature and depth plots in Part 4 and
the PDF files are reduced in size.
VERSION 2a (July 2003): The main change from version 2 to 2a, is that
the Powerpoint file for Part 3 of the curriculum is now also available
in Powerpoint 2000 format. This solves a problem associated with the Powerpoint
98 version of Part 3 not playing movies properly in newer versions of
Powerpoint. This is not an issue with the other parts of the curriculum
which have no embedded movies. A few typos were also corrected in Part
2.
VERSION 2 (October 2002): This version included lots of improvements
over version 1 based on student and teacher input, including a new Part
3 with movies. If you have version 1 of the curriculum, you should definitely
replace your old files with the new ones linked above.
VERSION 1 (June 2001): The first version of the curriculum, which
had 3 parts instead of 4.
The NeMO
curriculum was created with funding from the National Science Foundation's
GeoScience Education Program. We welcome your feedback
