The lessons are the heart of VolcanoWorld Online. They were designed specifically for interaction via the WWW, internet and email. The lessons are sequential and designed to cover introductory volcano topics. They are designed to take from 50-60 minutes. The Eruption Simulation is designed to take about 20 minutes per day for a minimum of 10 class days. Altogether the Online experience could be done in 3 weeks, enthusiasm and participation may dictate as much as a full trimester or semester.

  1. Vacation Excitement!- The mountain where the students are vacationing, wakes up.
  2. Monitoring Volcanoes- Presents two ways to measure volcanic deformation.
  3. Volcano Hazards- Looks at ash and mudflows and the hazards they present.
  4. VOLC News- Produce a 5 minute internet news cast about an active volcano.
  5. Eruption Simulation- Experience the drama of a potential volcanic eruption in your community. Plan community, business and political responses to ensure your survival.

The lessons are classroom ready, with minimal equipment required from the classroom. (blank paper, salt, balloons, felt pens, cardboard, etc.) All handouts, maps, pictures, movies and research sites are linked to the lesson.
