The interaction of lithospheric plates along their boundaries creates spectacular landforms at the surface of the earth. The type of landform created depends on the type of plate boundary. In this lesson, you're going on a world tour in order to explore the relationship between plate margin processes and the landforms they create. Your world tour will send you to information located out on the World Wide Web.

Go to the "Plate Margins and Landforms Data Collection" web page and print it off. Use the links on the web page  to collect the information in the table. When you're finished collecting all the information, complete the questions. Submit the answers to the questions via the online form via email and the "Plate Margins and Landforms" sheet in class to me by the due date listed on the syllabus.
