ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
The American Geophysical Union (AGU) and the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) acknowledge with gratitude the many
individuals who provided technical experience, teaching knowledge, and
classrooms for field testing in the development of this project. Along
with the authors and consultants, they provided continuous feedback in
the development of these materials. Without the assistance of these
individuals and the students who participated in the field test this volume
would not have been possible.
Technical Reviewers:
William Chavez, Geological Engineer, New Mexico Institute of
Mining and Technology, Socorro, New Mexico
Lucy Jones, Seismologist, United States Geological Survey
David Love, Environmental Geologist, New Mexico Bureau of Mines
and Mineral Resources, Socorro, New Mexico
Mary Ellen Williams, Earthquake Program Specialist, United States
Geological Survey, Woods Hole, Massachusetts
Curriculum Reviewers:
Allen Bone, Science Teacher, Butte, Montana
William Krayer, Science Teacher, Gaithersburg, Maryland
Sharon Stroud, Science Teacher, Colorado Springs, Colorado
Field Test Teachers:
Roger Alsup, Jim Anderson, Richard Arrington, Joann Ball, Allen Bone,
Gail Chaid, Linda Dudley, Jo Dodds, Elizabeth Ellis, George Foley, John
Gallagher, Melody Green, Paul Grogger, Kay Kidder, Paul Jamerson,
Larry Madden, Lloyd Magnuson, Gay Ann Masolo, Sue Ayn Moore,
Becky Orahood, Doyle Orrell, Nancy Sallee, Sandy Shutey, Jack Staker,
Ann Sullivan, Edith Thurman, Maris Ward, Leslie Wehner, Ronald
Wieland, and Walt Woolbaugh.
Teachers who participated in the two 1994 Seismic Sleuths Leadership
Institutes also conducted field testing and review of the lessons during
the institutes. The suggestions and additions by the initial field test and
institute teacher participants have contributed to a stronger curriculum
package.
A special note of thanks to Katharyn E. K. Ross, whose comprehensive
Fourth Edition of
Earthquake Education Materials for Grades K - 12
contributed greatly to the unit resource lists in this package, and to Sean
Cox, teacher, Salem High School, New Hampshire, who provided the
appendix to Unit Six.
