The United States Geological Survey (USGS) has gathered together this collection of Earthquake Topics for Education, which consists of over a dozen learning links to USGS resources. Popular items include an Animations for Earthquake Terms & Concepts, A Comparison of Two Bay Area Earthquakes: 1989 v. 1906, and This Dynamic Earth: The Story of Plate Tectonics, among others. While elementary school, middle school, and high school teachers will find excellent enhancers of all kinds for earthquake related lesson plans and activities, general readers will also find much to appreciate. For instance, anyone fascinated by the drama and history of geophysics will find much to admire in the Other Earthquakes Websites link that suggests such sites as the American Geophysical Union, the California Geological Survey, and the Center for Earthquake Research & Information. Readers may also note that the entire collection of resources is easily searchable when using the Search Learning Links function, found at the bottom of the page.
