Discovering
Plate
Boundaries
is
based
on
5
world
maps
containing
earthquake,
volcano,
topography,
satellite
gravity,
and
seafloor
age
data.
The
novel
aspect
of
the
exercise
is
the
"jigsaw"
manner
in
which
student
groups
access
the
maps
and
use
them
to
discover,
classify,
and
describe
plate
boundary
types.
The

is
based
only
on
observation
and
