Session 3: Review on digital media

Under the category of Science and Environment of the BBC News site, animated guide on a several natural disasters eg. earthquake, hurricanes, tornadoes, tsunamis and etc. are demonstrated step by step.













It is very easy for readers to understand the underlying causes and the formation of the disasters.















If you do not like animated guide, you can also get a text version on the formation of some of the disasters.

  1. 8.8 magnitude earthquake hit Chile and it may induce Tsunami to the coast of Japan, Hawaii and NZ. It is really sad to hear the outbreak of earthquake disaster, and it is difficult to image the casualties brought.

    This site helps us to understand the formation and the development of the natural disaster. It is really a good learning objects for the disciple of Geography and Liberal studies and also for all of us to know more about the earth and the natural environment.

  2. During my secondary school period, internet is not popular. Geography teacher will bring some model to classroom and demonstrate the concept.

    At present, students can have 3D demonstration the formation of earthquake and movement of earth which definitely enchaning the understanding of students.
