Summary of Digital Lab: Convergent Boundary

Summary

The goal of this virtual lab is to explore how plate properties affect different types of formations created at converging plate boundaries.

Driving Questions

Convergent Boundaries: Introduction
Investigate how the duration of plate movement impacts the formation heights at the convergent boundary.
Investigate how plate size impacts the number of earthquakes at the convergent boundary.
Investigate how plate type impacts the formation type at the convergent boundary.
Convergent Boundaries: Advanced
Investigate what affects the formation type at the convergent boundary.
Investigate what affects the duration of plate movement at the convergent boundary.
Investigate what affects the number of earthquakes at the convergent boundary.
