PERFORMANCE TASK: GROUP REPORTING ON VOLCANIC ERUPTION

# data[].attributes.body
Greetings! In our synchronous live earlier,  Miss Chua discussed that we will be doing a reporting on December 1,  2020 which is on Tuesday.

Here are the few key points and reminders that I have listed from our class.

We must accomplish the following contents:

1. Motivational Kick-off activity
2. Objectives
3. Learning Topics

Overview of Volcanic Eruption

- Description & terminologies

- Classifications of volcanoes

- Causes

Specific Hazards that may Happen

Prevention and Management (Mitigation)

4. Values Integration

# data[].attributes.body
Our group will be divided into two groups.

Reporters

There must be only two reporters in the presentations

The tasks of these reporters are only focused in discussing the topics meaning that they will not be researching.

Researchers

They are in charged of searching the contents and facts on this presentation, particularly in Volcanic Eruption

They will be in-charged of creating the PowerPoint presentation as well, with visual aids such as videos and GIFS

I am giving you the freedom in choosing your own tasks so that you will be able to work with ease . Good luck to everyone!

Since I am one of the presenters, I am only focused on discussing the topic to the audience. However,  I am still willing to contribute additional information to alleviate your burden. Also, I will make a script or guide for us presenters for the presentation to go smoothly.

# data[].attributes.body
I have created a Google Docs for us to write our written report in sync. Kindly access this and input the information that you have retrieved.

Reminder: The deadline of the Written Report is on December 2, 2020 which is on Tuesday.

# data[].attributes.body
You may visit the website of National Geographic to retrieve reliable information for our presentation. This will be a great aid to you since almost all of the information are explained in a concise way.

A volcano is an opening in a planet or moon's crust through which molten rock and gases trapped under the surface erupt, often forming a hill or mountain.

A volcano is an opening in a planet or moon's crust through which molten rock, hot gases, and other materials erupt. Volcanoes often form a hill or mountain as layers of rock and ash build up from repeated eruptions.

Volcanoes are classified as active, dormant, or extinct. Active volcanoes have a recent history of eruptions; they are likely to erupt again. Dormant volcanoes have not erupted for a very long time but may erupt at a future time. Extinct volcanoes are not expected to erupt in the future.

Inside an active volcano is a chamber in which molten rock, called magma, collects. Pressure builds up inside the magma chamber, causing the magma to move through channels in the rock and escape onto the planet's surface. Once it flows onto the surface the magma is known as lava.

Some volcanic eruptions are explosive, while others occur as a slow lava flow. Eruptions can occur through a main opening at the top of the volcano or through vents that form on the sides. The rate and intensity of eruptions, as well as the composition of the magma, determine the shape of the volcano.

Volcanoes are found on both land and the ocean floor. When volcanoes erupt on the ocean floor, they often create underwater mountains and mountain ranges as the released lava cools and hardens. Volcanoes on the ocean floor become islands when the mountains become so large they rise above the surface of the ocean.

I have watched this video and this has greatly aided me in understanding the concepts of what is a volcano. Kindly watch this as well as it may help you too.
