All Over The Map

 

We're continuing our focus on citizen science by looking at the "Did You Feel It?" reporting system set up to allow citizens to report earthquakes they feel in their communities. Read "All Over the Map" and answer the reflection questions, then proceed to one of the two (or both!) FACT-ivities included after the article. For some math practice, you'll be creating bar graphs based on data from the DYFI system and drawing some conclusions from the data. For some practice interpreting data from maps, you'll go online to look at some DYFI maps to compare east and west coast data.
