Resource Hub

Welcome

Welcome to the North Carolina Geological Survey's Resource Hub. This database is curated by the Education and Outreach Coordinator for the NC Geological Survey and contains links to resources that may be of use to anyone with the goal of teaching or learning about geology and earth science - especially in a K-12, formal education context. We strive to populate this list with things like posters, videos, activities, field trip guides, and reference material.

This database contains some resources developed here at the Geological Survey and other external resources that get our "seal of approval." Resources developed by the Survey will specify NCGS as the "source." Please be aware of when a link will direct you away from our website.
