Objectives: improve information and data literacy among undergraduate and graduate geoscience students

Methodology: incorporate GPS geodetic data from our on-going research projects into classroom work to illustrate fundamental statistical concepts

Approach: use case studies and teamwork

 

CASE 1: Is the Puerto Rico-Virgin Islands Block Rigid?

CASE 2: Do Inflation Cycles of the active Soufriere Hills volcano, Montserrat correlate with dome growth?
