Geo-Education in Protected Areas

Transkriptio

1 Northern Environmental Education Development NEED Transnational Workshop Geo-Education in Protected Areas Vatnajökull National Park, October

2 Lakeland Finland Geological material Jari Nenonen, Geological Survey of Finland NEED-project wp-2 meeting, Iceland

3 Why GTK is involved in NEED - need of popularized geological material - need of geological educational material - need of pedagogical knowledge - need to spread geological information - national and international co-opertion and change of knowledge and experiments - aim is to get good georeferenced popularized material to people, teachers and pupils in different educational levels

4 Saimaan ja Pielisen järvialueen maisema on miljoonaa vuotta sitten syntyneen kallioperän ja viimeisen vuoden aikana syntyneen maaperän yhdistelmä. Näistä rakentuu vaihteleva maastomuotojen mosaiikki, joka tarjoaa ainutlaatuisia ympäristöjä monimuotoisille elollisen luonnon kokonaisuuksille. The scenery of Lakeland Finland is combination of anicent bedrock and quaternary deposits.

5 We have also something..est, the oldest bedrock in EU!!

6 Base maps

7 Geological outdoor map Map and guidebook Detailed descriptions of geosites

8 Educational material Kainuu Southern-Savo 7 Etelä-Savon keskiosan kallioperä syntyi miljoonaa vuotta sitten Savon liuskealue Saimaan liuskealue
