Description

We all want to provide our students with engaging, learning-filled experiences, but often time, budgets, and other barriers can stand in our way. This is where technology can help enhance our lessons and lower the four walls of our classrooms! Join Lauren Boucher for this interactive, hands-on workshop as she shares a variety of tools and strategies for planning innovative virtual field trips for your students. Participants will also experience a virtual field trip first-hand for themselves, discover where to find done-for-you virtual explorations, and create a trip of their own using a ready-made planning template.

Objectives

  1. Explain how virtual field trips can lower the walls of the classroom and provide students with engaging, learning-filled experiences.
  2. Discover where to find done-for-you virtual field trips and how to create them using a ready-made planning template.
