ACTIVITY OUTLINE:
What are earthquakes? Where do they occur? How can we prepare for them? Join Geoscience Australia this Earth Science Week to discover some of the innovations and technological advances used to better monitor, understand and reduce the impact of earthquakes on the human environment.
Celebrate Earth Science Week with Fizzics Education and learn about geological processes and landforms. Your students will learn about erosion, plate tectonics, landforms, soil classification, earthquakes, rock types and much more!
Exploring the Oceans with ROVs
Join the education team at the Australian National Maritime Museum as we discuss the purpose of different types of ROVs. Hear about how these ‘underwater drones’ are helping scientists around the world make amazing new discoveries about our oceans. Dive beneath the waves to see what our ROVs have discovered around the museum and beyond, before talking about some of the design challenges of making technology that can survive in the most challenging corners of our planet.
This Earth Science Week join expert educators from Geoscience Australia, AusEarthEd, CoRE Learning Foundation and the Teacher Earth Science Education Programme (TESEP) to learn more about how you can integrate Earth science into your classroom. Hear about the resources and services on offer from some of Australia’s major Earth science education providers.
