Schools Study Earthquakes - Seismology Handbook

The main purpose of this guide is to step by step direct teachers in organizing a training route which would ultimately lead to the active students’ participation in seismograph handling process, recording and studying seismograms, calculating seismic parameters and exchanging results and experience within their cooperation with other student groups participating in the project. Seismology is fundamental for understanding our dynamic planet, as it plays a vital role in monitoring both human-made and natural seismogenic events.

"Restless Earth" Accelerator

Our beautiful planet is constantly under transformation. Sometimes, changes occur over a very long period of time and we barely note them. Some other times however, transformations are the result of massive and devastating events. In this activity we explore some of Earth's most intense and overwhelming events; volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and tsunamis. We will reflect on the impact of these natural phenomena on humans and their societies.

Earthquakes for Junior High School Students

The "Earthquakes for Junior High School Students" Inquiry Learning Space introduces students to aspects of earthquakes. Students learn about the science behind earthquake generation and detection and investigate the Tectonic Plate Theory, by correlating its outcomes with the worldwide distribution of earthquakes in real time.

To use this inquiry learning space, you will need to click on the link to the activity and enter with a username of your choice.

Schools Study Earthquakes - Pedagogical Framework

The School Study Earthquakes (SSE) project aims to increase students’ interest in scientific processes, influence their awareness of how earthquakes affect their life, as well as assisting them to develop key skills, such as analysis and problem solving skills through the study of seismology. Exploiting the innate curiosity of students about natural phenomena enables lifelong learning. In order to achieve this goal, teacher’s role is significant.

The Sound of Earth: Implementation Guide

This activity combines scientific inquiry with music education. Students investigate the characteristics of earthquakes using real data and then sonify the data in order to produce a musical synthesis from them.  Students are introduced to the sonification technique which can be applied in various physical phenomena spanning from elementary particle collisions to the study of exoplanets and beyond.
