These are six outlines one for each case study for EQ2. My students used them to classify the information they researched specific impacts of an earthquake, a volcanic eruption and a tsunami in LICs and HICs using geofile, geo factsheet, geoactive. They are suitable for any case studies as you can adapt them to responses as well.
