Engage with this interactive challenge to learn and deepen your understanding of tectonic boundaries.
Structure and features
- Investigate and apply different tectonic forces to plate boundaries between a continental plate and an oceanic plate, where both carry continental crusts.
- Predict the geological events happening at plate boundaries at different locations on Earth.
- Where have been the most recent examples of the effects of these plate boundaries interacting?
Teacher notes
