Symposium Details

Title Description Convenors
Educational Seismology in Secondary Schools Scientists around the world have discovered that seismology can be used as an educational context in secondary and high school classes. The motivation for these activities is varied, in some cases it is a purely educatioanl motive , an inquiry based science context to make science lessons more relevant to the real world, in other cases it might be used as an integrated part of a civil defence program, teaching studenyts and hence their families how best to understand earthquake hazard and mitigate the associated risks.|This symposium will enable educational seismology practitioners from around the world to share their experiences and ideas.
