Abstract
In the frame of a diploma thesis, written by Melanie Schnieders, landscape engineer in Osnabrück, a media-box was developed, that aims to transport main aspects of earth history, sedimentology, tectonics and glacial processes into geography school lessons. The TERRA.vita Geopark is taken as an example to explain how layers of rock form, why they contain so much information about former periods and how orogenesis and erosion can expose old sediments to the surface again. The media box aims to help teachers explaining geological processes using the surrounding landscape as an example, instead of talking about distant and exotic places, that are out of reach for most of the pupils.
