Full Project Description:
Musical Plates is an Internet-based multidisciplinary project which
will
enrich a student's learning experience through "Unique and Compelling"
applications of instructional technology. In particular, this project
taps
into some of the exciting applications of the Internet in education
by
having students access real time earthquake data, interact with experts
online, and publish their own work to the project web site.
Musical Plates has four Core Activities that will teach students how
to
access and interpret Real-Time earthquake and volcano data and to how
use
the information to solve a real world problem. Each of the core activities
is designed to be used in a 45 minute class period, although this may
depend on the grade level of your students. Additionally, students
will
need a small amount of class time (approximately 5 minutes) every day
for
a couple of weeks to record current earthquakes.
It is recommended that students go through the lessons in order, beginning
with the Preliminary Activity: Read the Story! before continuing on
to the
online activities. The Teacher Guide section contains lesson plans
for the
Core Activities, as well as for supplemental and enrichment lessons.
It is
also recommended that you review each of the lessons carefully and
use
your judgment for allocating the appropriate amount of class time for
the
project.
