First, she prominently displayed archaeology books in the library, including Ancient Times by Guy Austrian and Archaeology for Kids by Richard Panchyk. After explaining the definition of archaeology to them, the students and Robinson searched the Web and several magazines, like Science News and Scientific American, and uncovered that there were more than 20 different archaeology specializations. This article briefly describes Robinson's 10-week lesson.
