Part 6/8 Interpreting Results
In this video we introduce a second, smaller scale model of Earth to help us make sense of our results.
Tutorial to accompany the Lesson, "Determining and Measuring Earth's Layered Interior"
Students work first in small groups, and then as a whole class to compare predicted seismic wave travel times, generated by students from a scaled Earth model, to observed seismic data from a recent earthquakes. This activity uses models, real data and emphasizes the process of science.
