1-0 out of 5 stars Simplistic and Inaccurate
I was very disappointed with the XAMonline e-book on Earth Science I purchased. I am currently a biology teacher and was hoping it would prepare me for the Earth Science CSET. I found several errors while reading this e-book.It suggested that Mars is closer to the sun than the Earth and that the Kuiper belt is the region from the Sun to Neptune.
I also found the sample test questions to be overly simplistic and very different from examples I have seen on the CSET website.I haven't used any other XAMonline products but I would not recommend the Earth Science book and would strongly suggest looking for positive recommendations before buying any study guide. ...

3-0 out of 5 stars Review by a Teacher
This book is neither great nor poor. Actually there are not as many choices out there for Earth Science as there are for many other Science subjects. Therefore the school districts do not have a lot of choices. I've used the book with classes. As the one reviewer says, it is not always clear about what the main points are. Though an astute student should notice key terms are in bold face type. Yet often the definition, example of the term follows its first use by many pages. I even found it a bit confusing. Though the information is in the book. Many students do not know how to study, so if it does not jump out at them they just give up. I would not ditz the book like one reviewer has. The information that is presented is in the book, but the organization and presentation is not the best. Now I do agree that much of this book seems to be dated. I think that is because it is not really in a new addition. I've seen many copies of this book with dates from 1994 to 2001 and the cover and text seems to be exactly the same. So it looks like "2005 edition" is still the 1994 edition, just a new printing.

I am glad that one reviewer was able to learn using this book. Everyone is different, and so if this book turned on the light of understanding in one student, it can't be all-bad. And it is not all that bad, I just wish there actually was a much better Earth Science textbook out there. Our local district has been using this book for many years; most of our other science texts have been changed during those years.

I am afraid I will have to take exception to the naysayer's comments about this book using the Metric System. Where has he been during the last couple hundred years? The rest of the world uses the metric system. Today, only the USA does not. True, I don't know my height in centimeters, or the distance from Los Angeles to San Francisco in kilometers. But for many other matters we use the metric system all the time in everyday life. Do you know the focal length of your normal lens on a 35mm SLR camera in inches? Probably not, it's about 2 inches (50mm). Wow, and that great 210mm telephoto lens is how many inches? As far as science education goes, you will only use "English measure" in a few introductory classes in 9th grade and below. Chemistry and Physics are all metric. You will use both systems of measure in Biology, Geology, and Medical Sciences. Physical constants are easier numbers to remember in their metric forms. Also many ideas just are not thought of in English measure. Ever heard of pound-atomic-weights for the chemical elements. Actually that would not even make sense because a pound is a unit of force and not mass. This could not be used like gram atomic weights. Does anyone remember the English unit of mass? Do let me know if you actually do find a better Earth Sciences Textbook.

2-0 out of 5 stars A good 2nd reference book
This textbook is good as a second reference in an Earth Science Class. It does cover a lot of material. As a stand-alone source of information, the book does not do a good job of explaining topics or concepts. Many subjects are described in terms and vocabulary that are only partially explained. There is also some outdated subject information. For a text that has a copyright date of 2000, they talk about the focus problem of the Hubble Telescope and the current efforts to obtain computer enhanced images. I believe Shuttle astronauts fixed the telescope in 1994.
Also, all measurements are solely in the metric system. So an American student is constantly forced to convert metric units in their head to English units in order to comprehend subject scales. When was the last time someone asked you how tall you were? If you are from the USA, do you answer in feet and inches or meters and centimeters? Trying to absorb difficult concepts is tough enough. To add a foreign scale system (for USA students), compounds the difficulty in comprehension. Learning the metric system is one thing. To use the metric system exclusively in an Earth Science book (in the United States) to teach subject material is like using an unknown foreign language to try and explain something.

Product Description
The Good Earth is the product of collaboration between the content rigor provided by Earth Science specialists (McConnell, Steer) and the results of research on learning as contributed by pedagogical experts (Knight, Owens). The Good Earth has been explicitly designed to be compatible with inquiry-based, active learning in the college classroom. The structural elements of this text will allow the instructor to incorporate these student-centered teaching methods into their Earth Science course. The authors have tested the book’s content and pedagogy in large Earth Science classes for non-majors that are populated with mostly freshmen. Their experiences show that the materials and methods in The Good Earth can improve students’ learning, increase daily attendance, reduce attrition, and increase students’ enthusiasm in comparison with classes taught following a traditional lecture format.

The authors have chosen to emphasize three scientific themes throughout the text: i) scientific literacy; ii) Earth Science and the human experience; and, iii) the science of global change. The discussion of scientific methods is woven into the text throughout. They have included numerous examples of human interaction with the Earth that can serve as entry points for students to appreciate the nature of science. Global change is a theme that is evident in much current Earth Science research so our authors have used global change as a content theme throughout the book. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Win Science Fairs and Extra Credit!!! Read This!!
An award-winning science teacher and science fair judge, Janice VanCleave took copious notes about criteria shared among the very best exhibits. This book details the winners by explaining how and why to replicate results, without spoiling the journey of discovery inherent to each project. Its beauty is in harnessing the enthusiastic yet un-focused student to pinpoint a broad area of interest, creating a project using the Scientific Method applicable to a dozen Earth Science specific topics.
The entire book is a winner, helping students design a project using the Scientific Method but also to communicate those results in a clearly visual manner on 3-sided Foam-Core Project Board. Presentation is critical: a brilliant project may be wasted if its intricacies completely escape the viewer. Ms VanCleave shows howto navigate the 'marketing' portion of the board in addition to keeping a strictly scientific approach to recording data.
Recommend this book to fifth grade children and up.It is worth every penny, especially if you have more than one child in school at a time.

This is a great review source, I used it to suppliment my study for the CLEP natural sciences exam.It helped fill in the gaps, I wish REA would come out with a study guide for the natural sciences exam, but I was able to pass just fine with this book and a couple others.Great reference for sure.

5-0 out of 5 stars WOW!TEST SCORES ARE UP^^!!!
Wow!! I am in 8th grade and taking the High School Regent Earth Science course, and before I bought this book I was getting 50s and 60s on tests (my quarter average was a 84) and after I did the review questions in each chapter I havn't gotten anything below a 85 (now my average is a 94)!! This made my average go up 10 points, and if it can work for me, it can definitely work for you.My mom said it was the best money she ever spent, and I also bought the Barron's Regents Earth Science Exams and Answers book, but unfortunately it was a "little" overused and I can't read anything in it..O WELL THIS REALLY HELPS!I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT! it even has a full exam in the back and a vocab section that shows vocab words to know for the test, it's really good!

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent!
If you've been having trouble understanding the in-depth details of Earth Science and even just regular science, this book is for the new expert.It gives you plenty of details of every topic that you've learned in this course, and gives you many regents questions to study from (for the power pack).

You'll be amazed, just like I was.The book contains a lot of pictures/diagrams/etc. describing what you are learning about to help you comprehend better what you've just sighted out in the units.One thing I appreciated is that if by any chance, if you didn't understand the topic you were learning about, just go back in the index and it will show a secondary page number or a page where it shows more analysis of the particular topic you're studying.

Even though the Regents won't give you the exact same questions from an old exam on a new exam, it is still a very crucial part in studying old Regents questions.GUARENTEED:It will create more skills as a whole in terms of understanding the questions and answers; primarily eliminating answers that you cannot recognize or ones that don't make any sence, and keeping the one answer that makes the most logic or sence... This is a BIG help in trying to get a good grade on your exam.If you get the Regents questions book, you will be provided with answers to all questions, and it can really make you realize why that answer is the way it should be.It'll create more facts in your head.

One thing is for sure, is that you can't miss this book.My point of view is that you should review throughly throughout this book, and review as many questions as you can.I did this, and I received an 86 percent for my average on the regents, and you can even do better that I can!

NOTE:Order this book right when school starts or sooner, so you can be prepared.

5-0 out of 5 stars A Great Book, which is a great subsitute to the old and....
Listen, this book is mad good. I took the Earth Science Regents in 8th Grade in June 2001, and all of the material was covered by this book. The day before I took the test, I was cramming out of this book. Even though I was getting 95s in science, the material did not make sense. But everyday in May, I studied with another version of this book, and it helped refresh my memory of Earth Science. With this book, it helped me comphrend and ace the regents with flying colors. I was able to get a 88 in the regents exam from this book. I highly recommend this book to everyone that is going to take the Earth Science Regents in New York State. For the difficult comprehender, it will help build connections to topics that will help you pass the regents, and for the forgetful type, it will refresh your memory. Take my word for it, and buy it. Its worth the price it is. ... Read more
