[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Covers seafloor spreading and the mechanism for continental drift.

[Free Registration/Login Required] A site giving an animation of how the minerals on the seafloor could provide evidence for seafloor spreading. Also included is a short quiz.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Seafloor features and how scientists map them.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] A brief overview of the methods scientists use to study the ocean seafloor and the features that can be found there. Discusses the magnetic polarity of the seafloor...

Discover Alfred Wegner's ideas relating to continental drift and seafloor spreading which are both evidence to the concept of plate tectonics.

[Free Registration/Login Required] A site where students can label the features of the ocean floor such as: mid-ocean ridge, rift, and more. Also on the site is a short quiz about the different topography of the ocean floor.

This site is a very simple overview of plate tectonics. It includes a map of all the major plates and a diagram of the layers of the earth.

Working in pairs, students think like engineers and connect what they understand about the theory of plate tectonics to the design of structures for earthquake-resistance.

A brief Wikipedia encyclopedia article on continental drift. It tells what continental drift is, what causes it, and gives examples of evidence that continental drift has occurred.

In this interactive tutorial you will learn about the theory of continental drift and why it was ultimately rejected. Then learn about the theory of plate tectonics and the evidence to support it. Lastly discover the types of boundaries...
