Apply different tectonic forces to plate boundaries. Identify boundary and crust types. For example, identify a transform boundary between a continental plate and an oceanic plate, where both carry continental crusts. Predict the geological events occurring at plate boundaries at different locations on Earth. This learning object is part of a series of four objects. The series is also packaged as a combined learning object.
Objective
1. Students identify and explain the tectonic processes occurring at divergent, convergent and transform boundaries.
2. Students relate geological features to different tectonic boundaries.
3. Students predict geological processes and features at different locations on plate boundaries..
