Novice - Basic seismology topics. Activities emphasize skills and abilities generally associated with students in the middle and high school grades.

Intermediate - Basic and/or intermediate seismology topics presented through activates that emphasize skills and abilities generally associated with high school and non-majors undergraduate courses.

Advanced - Intermediate and/or advanced seismology topics presented through activates that emphasize skills and abilities generally associated with undergraduate science majors.

Expert - Advanced and/or expert seismology topics presented through activates that emphasize skills and abilities generally associated with graduate students and faculty.

EarthScope Consortium offers a range of resources for students, educators and the general public.

Activity -These are triads (5, 15, or 30+ minute) of demonstrations, brief lessons, and one+ period lessons for formal and free-choice environments.

Animation - Concise animations that illustrate fundamental concepts that are difficult to convey to learners through other means (the real events may be too small, too large, too fast, too slow, or unsafe for the classroom).

Course - A series of lessons that provide the structure for a semester-long undergraduate course. 

Demo - Quick teacher-led activities (show-and-tell combined with an opportunity for learners to ponder, predict, and discuss) to stimulate interest and convey a concept to learners. 

Fact-Sheet - Single page, accessible, discussions of geophysics (earthquakes, geodesy, etc) related topics.

Interactive - Uses interactive technology that learners can manipulate to illustrate fundamental concepts difficult to convey to learners through other means.

Lesson - A step-by-step guide outlining what students will learn across one or more class periods, through a progression of activities, combined in a learning cycle, to achieve the desired student learning.

Poster - More than just wallpaper, these eye-catching, educative posters invite students to become minds-on with Earth's internal structure, earthquakes, seismic waves and more!

Software-Web-App - Stand alone software, interactive web tools, and downloadable apps to help you explore geophysics data, such as earthquake and geodetic data, on a variety of topics.

Video - Concise video lectures give background information on geophysics, such as Earth processes and plate tectonics for teaching how earthquakes happen and how they are studied.
