This
lesson
provides
an
overview
of
basic
atomic
structure
and
the
concept
of
radioactive
decay.
Topics
include
the
particles
that
make
up
an
atom,
binding
forces,
and
the
concept
of
isotopes.
There
is
also
discussion
of
decay
methods
and
half-life
versus
activity.
The
lesson
includes
an
activity
in
which
students
use
online
applets
to
investigate
the
half-life
and
activity
of
selected
isotopes
and
...

This
lesson
provides
an
overview
of
destructive
earthquakes
and
their
connection
to
tectonic
movements
of
the
Earth's
crust.
It
includes
a
discussion
of
some
especially
destructive
historic
earthquakes,
and
a
brief
introduction
to
contintental
drift
and
the
theory
of
plate
tectonics.
There
is
also
discussion
of
basic
seismology
(types
of
waves)
and
measures
of
the
magnitude
of
an
earthquake
(the
Richter

This
lesson
provides
an
overview
of
the
various
types
of
interactions
between
tectonic
plates.
The
discussion
uses
the
analogy
of
a
cracked
egg
to
describe
the
tectonic
plates
composing
Earth's
crust.
Other
topics
include
the
concentrated
earthquake
and
volcanic
activity
associated
with
plate
boundaries,
types
of
interactions
at
the
boundaries,
and
how
plate
motions
are
affecting
the
Atlantic
and
