Geologic Processes on Earth
Geologic processes on Earth include exogenous and endogenous processes. Exogenous processes occur near the surface and include weathering, erosion, mass wasting, and sedimentation, which are driven by gravity, water, wind, and organisms. Endogenous processes occur within Earth and are driven by thermal energy in the mantle, resulting in magmatism, volcanism, metamorphism, and mountain building. While these processes shape the landscape and present risks, there may be no completely safe place, as all locations can be affected over millions of years.

The 3 Types of Erosion
Erosion is the wearing away of land by wind, water, and ice. There are three main types of erosion: wind erosion, water erosion, and ice erosion. Water erosion can carve out canyons and widen rivers, while ice erosion acts like sandpaper on wood. Erosion can threaten structures like houses and driveways if not prevented, as it can cause trees to fall and land to wash away. Simple steps like planting vegetation and building rock walls can help limit erosion.
Weathering, Erosion and Deposition.(3rd/4th grade teach)
Ties weathering, erosion and deposition together as one continuing process for younger elementary students.
Volcanism
Volcanoes form when hot molten rock (magma) rises from below the Earth's surface and erupts. They consist of a vent, conduit and surrounding cone built from erupted material. Most volcanoes occur at plate boundaries or hot spots. Magma rises due to lower density and pressure changes, erupting either explosively with gas-rich magma or effusively with low-viscosity magma. Eruptions produce hazards like lava flows, pyroclastic flows and falls. Notable examples include Vesuvius destroying Pompeii and Krakatoa's powerful 1883 eruption. Supervolcanoes are capable of much larger eruptions than normal volcanoes.
Agents of Erosion
The document discusses various agents of erosion. It describes how water, in the form of surface water and groundwater, is the most powerful erosion agent and can create landforms like deltas and caves. Ice is also noted as a powerful erosion force, with moving glaciers carving valleys. Wind erosion predominantly impacts arid regions, changing rock shapes. Waves in coastal areas continuously erode old landforms and build new ones through marine processes. The document also notes that human activities now represent a significant force of erosion through construction, mining, and other land alterations.

It describes the general characteristics of the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Arctic, and Southern Oceans, including their average depths, geological features, and freshwater inputs. It also lists marginal seas surrounding each ocean and provides additional details on the largest/smallest oceans, deepest ocean trenches, saltiest seas, and historical definition of "the seven seas".
Plate tectonics
Plate tectonics is the theory that Earth's outer shell is divided into several plates that glide over the mantle, the rocky inner layer above the core. The plates act like a hard and rigid shell compared to Earth's mantle. This strong outer layer is called the lithosphere.
11 formation of rock layers
Rock layers are formed through sedimentary processes over long periods of time. Stratified rocks are formed from sediments laid down in layers, and their formation depends on stratigraphy and stratification. There are several laws of stratigraphy that help geologists determine the relative ages of rock layers based on principles like original horizontality, superposition, cross-cutting relationships, inclusions and unconformities. Geologists use physical features of the rock layers as well as index fossils to correlate and match rock layers across different regions in order to reconstruct Earth's history.
Location, size and shape
The document discusses the geographical location and physical characteristics of the Philippines. It notes that the Philippines is an archipelago located in Southeast Asia between 116ยฐ and 127ยฐ east longitude and 4ยฐ23โ and 21ยฐ25โ north latitude. It consists of over 7,000 islands divided into three main regions: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. The location has influenced the country's political, economic, and cultural development.
Coastal Landforms
The document discusses various coastal landforms created by erosion and deposition processes along shorelines. It describes landforms such as headlands and bays, cliffs and wave-cut platforms, caves, arches, stacks, and stumps which are formed by coastal erosion. Beaches and spits are landforms created by coastal deposition, with beaches forming in sheltered areas between high and low tide lines, and spits forming as narrow ridges projecting from the coast due to longshore drift depositing materials.
Exogenic Process
This document discusses various earth processes including weathering, mass wasting, and soil erosion. It defines weathering as the breakdown of rocks near the earth's surface due to elements like temperature, rainfall, and frost. Weathering occurs through physical processes like exfoliation or chemical processes like oxidation. Mass wasting is the downward movement of rock and soil under gravity, and includes different types of movement like falls, slides, and flows. Soil erosion is the removal of soil faster than its replacement, and can occur through various agents like wind, water, or human activities.
Interior of the earth
This document provides information about the layers of Earth's interior. It is divided into three main layers: the crust, mantle, and core.
The crust is the outermost layer and is divided into two sublayers - the continental crust (Sima) and oceanic crust (Sial). Sima is less dense and older, while Sial is denser and younger. The mantle, the second layer, is also divided into upper and lower sections. The upper mantle is solid while the lower mantle is molten. The core is the innermost layer and consists of nickel and iron. It has a solid inner core and molten outer core. Temperature and pressure increase significantly with depth into Earth.
Volcanism plutonism
The document describes two types of endogenous (internally driven) landform-building processes: igneous and tectonic processes. Igneous processes create landforms such as volcanoes through volcanic eruptions and igneous intrusions. Tectonic processes like folding, faulting, and lateral faulting form landforms including mountains, rift valleys, escarpments, and are responsible for earthquakes through ongoing tectonic activity.

What is a fault and what are the different types
A fault is a fracture in the Earth's crust where rock on one side has moved relative to the other. There are several types of faults classified by the direction of movement: normal faults occur during extension and cause the hanging wall to drop down; thrust faults occur during compression and involve the hanging wall moving up and over the footwall; strike-slip faults involve sideways movement where the blocks slide past each other. The angle of the fault and direction of movement determine its classification as normal, reverse, or a strike-slip fault.
The rock cycle
The rock cycle describes how rocks change form over long periods of time through various physical processes. There are three main types of rocks - igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic - and each can change into another through the processes of cooling, weathering and erosion, compaction and cementation, heat and pressure (metamorphism), and melting. The rock cycle begins with molten rock that cools to form igneous rock. Erosion produces sediment that is buried and compacted into sedimentary rock. Further burial and heat causes metamorphism into metamorphic rock, which at high heat and pressure can melt back into magma to restart the cycle.

Landforms[1]
Rivers shape the land by eroding and depositing sediments over time. They cut valleys and canyons, form floodplains and deltas at their mouths. Running water is one of the most important forces changing Earth's surface. The land is made up of layers - the lithosphere is the outer rocky layer, the hydrosphere contains Earth's water, and the atmosphere is the blanket of gases. Together these systems continuously shape and resurface the planet.

The Department of Education (DepEd) and the Maritime Industry Authority (MARINA) signed a memorandum of agreement to offer a maritime specialization track in Senior High School. This will help provide qualified students for further maritime studies and careers. The agreement will see DepEd and MARINA work together on curriculum development that meets international standards, allowing graduates to take certification assessments. Officials hope this will increase the number of qualified Filipino seafarers and officers. Enrollment numbers for the first year of the Senior High School program have exceeded targets nationally and in Central Luzon, indicating trust in the K to 12 reform. Some 200 schools will soon benefit from a new cloud-based learning system that provides online resources even in
Listening Activities
There are three main types of listening retention: short-term, short-term with rehearsal, and long-term. Short-term retention lasts less than 60 seconds while short-term with rehearsal involves consciously repeating information. Long-term retention requires transferring information to long-term memory through note-taking or associating new information with existing knowledge. Listening activities can involve no response, short responses like true/false, or longer responses like note-taking, summarizing, or problem-solving. The document provides examples of different types of listening activities and their purposes.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
