This lesson focuses on relative versus absolute velocity. Students can use a program (must be connected to the internet) to calculate the different types of velocities for different points along plate boundaries. A very brief description of the earth's plates is given, with links to additional information and images. Includes discussion questions. Educational levels: High school, Undergraduate lower division, Undergraduate upper division, General public, Informal education
