The global pattern of tectonic activity and its relationship to constructive, destructive and conservative plate margins; hot spots.	TECTONIC ACTIVITY	CJ SCHEDULE WEEKS 1-15
The global pattern of tectonic activity and its relationship to constructive, destructive and conservative plate margins; hot spots.	Horizontal movement: speed/ scale; relationship between plate boundaries. Mapping link between active volcanoes/earthquakes and plate boundaries. Anomalies of hot spots.	Analysis and evaluation of evidence. Limitation of evidence. Limitation of conclusions drawn.
Constructive margins (faulting, earthquakes and volcanic activity).	· Divergent plates: Mid Atlantic ridge; E. African ridge; basaltic lava and its features (pillow lava); transform faults.
Destructive margins (subduction, earthquakes and fold mountain formation).	· Convergent plates: Ocean trench/andesitic lava; Benioff zones; Ocean/ocean — island arc; Ocean/continental — Andean fold mountains; Continental/continental — Himalayan.
Conservative margins (faulting and earthquakes)	San Andreas Fault.
