Moose!,
Awesome, you know I am enamored with the Precambrian! What are you going to look at in Wisconsin, the Baraboo? I am going to do some field work this summer in Missouri (St. Francois Mountains) continuing some work that is coming out in Tectonics (in print and cover photo!, electronic is published). Anyway, I love teaching Precambrian as well.
As for the main topic, here's the rub. Creationism sounds good to those with a passing knowledge of science. I doubt that high school and middle school students have the necessary skills to distinguish some of the finer points. No doubt, some students could do it, but I don't think they have developed a good enough understanding of basic science (trust me, I've judged a number of science fairs).
Cheers
Joe Meert
PS: Are you going to do graduate work?
