There is a list of volcanoes to choose from at the bottom of this description or you can pick your own. The information you are expected to include in this report is likewise at the bottom of this description.Your volcano groupYou've all been assigned to a volcano report group for this assignment, though each of you will complete and submit your own volcano report. Your group is there to help you make steady progress on the report, provide feedback, ideas, inspiration, and models of quality reports, to give you the chance to offer these to your fellow students, and to help you feel more connected to one another. If you need help accessing your volcano group's Canvas page, watch this quick and effective tutorial. (Note: the tutorial is from Feb 2023; Canvas may have moved things around a bit since then). Make sure you pick a volcano that no one else in your volcano group has chosen (incentive to pick early!).What to include in the volcano reportWhat is the volcanoâs name and where on the planet is it located?What plate tectonic setting gives rise to this volcano? (Subduction zone; mid-ocean ridge; continental rift; mantle plume; etc.)What style of volcanism is this? Describe the kind of eruptions typical of this volcano (explosive; gentle/continuous; etc.)What is the composition of the magma? How does this influence the volcanoâs style of eruption?What hazards are associated with this volcano? When did it last erupt? Is it being actively monitored? And if so, what methods are being used?You don't have to write the report in any specific format, but please produce it using Word or some similar software, and if you find useful sources please cite them (in whatever format you prefer). Your report is meant to be read, enjoyed, and understood by one of your peers, who will be leaving feedback for you. So please produce clear, clean, organized work. I recommend breaking it down into subsections with its own heading telling the reader what they can expect to learn in each section, but feel free to organize it how you wish :)Leaving peer review feedback for one of your classmatesLearning from and encouraging one another is a crucial part of learning, especially in an online class, so in this assignment you will be assigned to peer review one of your classmate's volcano reports. The goal here is to leave constructive feedback and to encourage your colleague. First, if you aren't sure how to do this, watch this useful tutorialLinks to an external site.. The peer review assignments will be made Monday morning, Feb 23, when the report is due. Once you have found your peer review assignment, read the volcano report a couple of times. Pay close attention to how well they satisfied the assignment criteria (see "What to include in the volcano report" above). Then leave a comment (and leave annotation comments on the document itself) that does the following:Tell the author of the report what they did well. What did you like about the report? Was the information accessible? Was it written in an engaging way? What did you learn from this report?Constructively offer a few opportunities for improvement. Did they forget to include some information that was part of the assignment description? Can you think of a way the author could make the report even better?List of volcanoes (or choose your own)Mt. VesuviusMt. PeleMauna LoaKilaueaYellowstone hot spotSiberian Traps large igneous provinceColumbia River Flood Basalt large igneous provinceMt. St. HelensMt. PinatuboMt. FujiKrakatoaMt. NyiragongoCotopaxiMake sure you choose a volcano other than the ones your support group members have chosen.Steps:To help you stay on track, this assignment has several steps. Make sure and follow each step carefully, because there are points assigned to each step that can only be earned by accomplishing that step. To complete this assignment, do the following:Due Sunday, Feb 16: Introduce yourself to your volcano report group and tell them which volcano you will be reporting on. If no one in your group has started as discussion for this purpose, create one and be the first to post! Due Thursday, Feb 20: Share a draft of your volcano report in the same discussion where you all introduced yourselves, and comment on your group members' draftsDue Sunday, Feb 23: Submit your volcano report as a Word or other text document hereDue Wednesday, Feb 26: Read and provide peer review feedback to another classmate's report. (If you aren't sure how to do this, watch this useful tutorialLinks to an external site.)Course AI policyIf you use AI to complete the assignment, make sure and cite any text, images, or other content you include in your assignment that was generated by AI. This means putting in in quotations and citing where it came from, just like citing any other outside sourceI don't care about the specific format used to cite AI (MLA, APA, etc.), just make sure you include these four things:Put text in quotes; add a caption to imagesGive the AI tool name (e.g., Gemini, ChatGPT, etc.), version number, and date you used itInclude the full prompt you used to generate each piece of content.You can include the above info at the end of your assignment in a "sources cited" section if you wantIncluding AI-generated text and images in an assignment without doing the above constitutes academic dishonestyIf you need a refresher, watch this video where I explain the AI policy in more detailHow this assignment will be graded:This assignment is worth 130 points which are awarded as follows (following the steps above)Step 1âthis step is worth 10 pts, is due on Sunday, Feb 16, and will be graded on completionStep 2âthis step is worth 10 pts, is due on Thursday, Feb 20, and will be graded on completionStep 3âthis step is worth 90 pts, is due on Sunday, Feb 23, and will be graded as follows (find these steps under "What to include in the volcano report" above):5 pts for name and location10 pts for description of the plate tectonic setting that produces this volcano15 pts for the style of volcanism and the type of eruptions that are typical of this volcano20 pts for the composition of the magma and how it influences the eruption style20 pts for hazards, most recent eruption, and monitoring methodsStep 4 is worth 20 pts, is due on Wednesday, Feb 26, and will be graded on completion (see "Leaving peer review feedback for one of your classmates" above)Kilauea Volcano Report.pdf
