Seismic Slinky!
Source Institutions
Did you know that a Slinky makes a handy model of earthquake waves?

Whose Fault Is It?
Source Institutions
In this seismic simulation, learners play a "who-dunnit" game to explore earthquakes.

Shake it up with Seismographs!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore the engineering behind seismographs and how technology has improved accurate recording of earthquakes.

Shake Table
Source Institutions
This activity guide includes instructions on how to build a "Shake Table" by mounting an eccentric mass (off center) on the shaft of a small dc motor.

Earthquake Science: Soil Liquefaction
Source Institutions
This activity demonstrates liquefaction, the process by which some soils lose their solidity during an earthquake.

Earthquake-Proof Buildings
Source Institutions
In this geology and engineering activity (page 7 of the PDF), learners build an earthquake simulator, then use it to test various building designs, exploring different materials, shapes, and design op
Tsunami: Waves of Destruction
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use tsunami time travel maps to predict how long it will take a tsunami to reach the shore.

Earthquake Energy
Source Institutions
In this geology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners simulate an earthquake with little more than an elastic band and drinking straws.
