I use the Seismic Monitor on www.iris.edu as a quick 'worth a thousand words' explanation of plate tectonics for my students. Works for just about every grade level. I'll add Dylan Prentiss' photo to my kit. http://www.iris.edu/dms/seismon.htm FYI the IRIS seismometers are connected to their respective sites by internet (you knew that!), and many of those are at Kirkland AFB in Albuquerque. My students here in NM find that interesting. Beautiful, indeed. I use the Seismic Monitor on http://www.iris.edu as a quick ‘worth a thousand words’ explanation of plate tectonics for my students.
