The
Virtual
Courseware
Project
produces
interactive
online
simulations
to
help
enhance
the
learning
and
teaching
of
geology
and
other
Earth
and
environmental
science
topics.
Each
lab
provides
a
brief
introduction
to
the
topic
and
a
quiz
to
assess
understanding
of
the
material.
Materials
include
an
activity
in
which
seismic
waves
are
used
to
determine
the
magnitude
of
an
earthquake
and
to
locate
its
