Use Edmodo to Collaborate
 Create different groups on Edmodo and
  students in small groups can collaborate and
  share resources.
Students teach each other
        Students research the questions



They share information and resources on Edmodo

Content Standards
Plate Tectonics and Earth's Structure: Plate tectonics explains important
features of the Earth's surface and major geologic events.




        earthquakes are sudden motions along breaks in the crust called faults, and
        volcanoes/fissures are locations where magma reaches the surface.




                major geologic events, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and mountain
                building result from plate motions.



                        Students know that the effects of an earthquake on any region
                        vary, depending on the size of the earthquake, the distance of the region from
                        the epicenter, the local geology, and the type of construction in the region.
ISTE Standards For Students
Students demonstrate creative thinking, construct knowledge, and
develop innovative products and processes using technology.


     Students use digital media and environments to communicate and
     work collaboratively, including at a distance, to support individual
     learning and contribute to the learning of others.


           Students apply digital tools to gather, evaluate, and use
           information.


                 Students identify and define authentic problems and significant
                 questions for investigation.


                       Students exhibit a positive attitude toward using technology that
                       supports collaboration, learning, and productivity.
ISTE Standards for Teachers
engage students in exploring real-world issues and
solving authentic problems using digital tools and
resources


     Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences
     and Assessments



           collaborate with students, using digital tools and
           resources to support student success and innovation.


                 facilitate experiences that advance student
                 learning, creativity, and innovation in both face-to-face
                 and virtual environments.
