Students learn about how seismic wavespropagate and how recording the waves allow scientists to understand where and in whatdirection a fault ruptured during an earthquake. Students complete a worksheet in order to gainan understanding of the process of triangulation of a quake’s epicenter and the different types ofseismic waves.2.2.2.4.

For example, Gomes, Bolite,and Powell19 looked at assessing the mathematics skills necessary for a final course project.
