Abstract

Geomorphology is a branch of Geology what could be complex and tedious to students due to the wide variety of landforms, the extensive nomenclature and the many parameters that determine specific reliefs (lithology, geochemistry, climate, slope, vegetation, etc.). To facilitate understanding of how multiple factors determine the reliefs that can form in a region, here it is proposed an activity for the student to find, check out and investigate the origin of certain reliefs. This activity also allows introduce students to the scientific method and the reasoned discussion, evidence-based, of multiple working hypotheses.
