Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and tsunami frequently remind us of the dangers associated with living on a constantly changing planet. How do people prepare for these rare but dramatic events? Student will study the science behind earthquakes and volcanoes, how it guides monitoring, forecasting, prevention, and response, and the cultural and ethical aspects of these events.

Students will form groups that will collectively edit a wikipedia page associated with an earthquake or volcano, to enhance the geological background of the event and summarize future hazard and mitigation/preparation initiatives
