Earthquakes Online

With the tragic news of the recent earthquakes, first Haiti and now Chile, I thought I would share some of the e-learning resources regarding earthquakes and tsunamis. Prior to that, it is important to note the valiant relief efforts so many are doing and the support they need. There are many relief groups in need of donations and it can be done easily online or via text. Mashable has posted a list of ways you can make online and text donations.

Here are some e-learning resources regarding earthquakes along with emergency preparedness:

• "Written in Stone" Earthquake Animations - SDSU


• Earthquakes - SDSU


• Earthquakes for Kids - USGS


• Forces of Nature - National Geographic


• Seismology Animations - IRIS


• The Tsunami Disaster Explained - BBC (2004)


• The 1906 San Francisco Earthquake and Fire - Bancroft Library


• Be Red Cross Ready - American Red Cross


• Are You Prepared? - 72hours.org

These are also now listed on the Free e-Learning page.
