Musical Plates is an Internet-based multidisciplinary project which will enrich a student's learning experience through "unique and compelling" applications of instructional technology. In particular, this project taps into some of the exciting new applications of the Internet in education by having students access real time earthquake data, interact with experts online, and publish their own work to the project web site. Students will tap into these fantastic resources all in the context of an authentic real world problem which they will need to solve using science and mathematics. 

Publish students' reports online. For more information, click here.
