Plate tectonics involves the movement of plates that make up the Earth's crust. The plates constantly move due to flowing magma underneath. This causes the plates to move apart from each other through continental drift, collide together to form fold mountains, or slide past each other causing earthquakes and volcanoes. Earthquakes occur when plates slide and release built up pressure. Volcanoes form when plates separate and hot magma rises up and builds upon itself over many eruptions into cone shaped volcanoes. Famous examples include Mt. Etna and Mt. Vesuvius in Italy.

Earth is the third planet from the Sun and the only object in the Universe known to harbor life. According to radiometric dating and other sources of evidence, Earth formed over 4 billion years ago.[24][25][26] Earth's gravity interacts with other objects in space, especially the Sun and the Moon, Earth's only natural satellite. Earth revolves around the Sun in 365.26 days, a period known as an Earth year. During this time, Earth rotates about its axis about 366.26 times.[n 5]
Earth's axis of rotation is tilted, producing seasonal variations on the planet's surface.[27] The gravitational interaction between the Earth and Moon causes ocean tides, stabilizes the Earth's orientation on its axis, and gradually slows its rotation.[28] Earth is the densest planet in the Solar System and the largest of the four terrestrial planets.
Earth's lithosphere is divided into several rigid tectonic plates that migrate across the surface over periods of many millions of years. About 71% of Earth's surface is covered with water, mostly by oceans.[29] The remaining 29% is land consisting of continents and islands that together have many lakes, rivers and other sources of water that contribute to the hydrosphere. The majority of Earth's polar regions are covered in ice, including the Antarctic ice sheet and the sea ice of the Arctic ice pack. Earth's interior remains active with a solid iron inner core, a liquid outer core that generates the Earth's magnetic field, and a convecting mantle that drives plate tectonics.
Within the first billion years of Earth's history, life appeared in the oceans and began to affect the Earth's atmosphere and surface, leading to the proliferation of aerobic and anaerobic organisms. Some geological evidence indicates that life may have arisen as much as 4.1 billion years ago. Since then, the combination of Earth's distance from the Sun, physical properties, and geological history have allowed life to evolve and thrive.[30][31] In the history of the Earth, biodiversity has gone through long periods of expansion, occasionally punctuated by mass extinction events. Over 99% of all species[32] that ever lived on Earth are extinct.[33][34] Estimates of the number of species on Earth today vary widely;[35][36][37] most species have not been described.[38] Over 7.4 billion humans live on Earth and depend on its biosphere and natural resources for their survival. Humans have developed diverse societies and cultures; politically, the world has about 200 sovereign states.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Plate Tectonics
1. Plate tectonics
The Restless Earth
The earths crust is made up of many Plates. These plates float on the Magma. Magma
constantly moves, so as a result the plates are constantly moving. Europe and
America are moving apart from each other very slowly, this is called Continental
Drift. Plates move in three ways. They move apart, collide and slide past each
other. This movement is responsible for Fold Mountains, Earthquakes and
Volcanoes.
Folding
When plates collide they cause such pressure that one plate is forced under the other
and causes the crust to become buckled upwards, as a result Fold Mountains are
2. formed. These are the world’s highest mountains. They include, The Andes in
Chile, The Rockies in North America and The Alps in Europe.
Earthquakes
Earthquakes occur when plates slide past each other, Pressure builds and the
plates have to shake themselves free. The place where an earthquake occurs is called
the Focus.The Epicentre is the place directly above the Focus on the surface. This
is where most damage is done. Shock waves spread out from the focus. A Richter
Scale is used to measure the strength of an earthquake. A famous Fault Line is
the San Andreas Faultin California.
Volcanoes
Volcanoes are formed when plates separate or pull away from each other. As the
plates separate the hot magma under the surface rises up through what is known as
3. avent. Over time, and many eruptions, the layers of cooled down lava build up to
form acone shaped mountain known as a Volcano. The opening at the top of a
volcano is known as a crater. Famous examples of volcanoes are Mt. Etna and Mt.
Vesuvius, both are found in Italy. Volcanoes can cause great damage and loss of
life. However, they can also provide rich, fertile land, they are popular tourist
attractions and they have also formed new land in the form of islands such
as Iceland, Hawaii and Tenerife.
