Making earthquake working modelm
in this course introduces students to the science of earthquakes by helping them design and build a simple yet effective working model. This course explains how tectonic plate movements beneath the Earth’s crust create vibrations and seismic waves that cause earthquakes. Through step-by-step guidance, learners use everyday materials such as cardboard, springs, rubber bands, or small motors to simulate shaking and ground movement. The model demonstrates fault lines, energy release, and the impact of seismic activity on buildings and structures. Students also explore earthquake measurement tools like the Richter scale and understand safety measures to reduce damage. By engaging in hands-on experiments, they develop problem-solving skills, creativity, and a clear understanding of earth science. The course highlights the importance of disaster preparedness, structural safety, and environmental awareness. Ideal for school projects, science exhibitions, and competitions, this course makes complex geological concepts engaging, practical, and easy to understand for learners. howtofunda
