Explore an Intriguing Geological Process
Simulate the plate tectonic activity, explore a volcano’s angle of repose, or analyze data about the mineral composition of lava with the activities on this software. Once they’ve completed the experiments they can move to the assessment component for writing or data analysis activities. Students can also view closed-captioned film clips, learn about the birth of a volcano, review the different types of volcanoes, or create multimedia presentations with the wide variety of resources included on the software. A printable teacher’s guide is on the CD as well.System RequirementsMac: PowerPC, OS 8.2 to OS X, 32MB RAMWindows: Pentium processor, Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP, 32MB RAM
