Good Morning,
Are you looking to enhance your instruction by adding some virtual explorations to your lesson plans?
Here are a few options:
- Google Earth Voyager "Google Earth's Voyager is a showcase of interactive guided tours, quizzes, and layers that aim to help educate everyone about the world, locations near and far."
- "Teachers use HistoryView VR as an online tool to bring historical sites and museums to the classroom. VR headsets are not required to experience this program. It is available on Chromebooks and tablets." (Scroll down on the page past the map to see the different types of virtual environments available)
- Arizona State University Virtual Fieldtrips: "VFT's are topic based interactive and educationally rich experiences captured during real expeditions with scientists doing current research. Some are built with adaptive feedback and adaptive pathways. (Look for the designated icons). This adaptivity allows for non-linear experiences with varying pathways, as well as individual feedback, that is tailored to the users input and responses. These VFTs are being used in high school and college classrooms to supplement a wide variety of topics and are actively in development with new VFTs continually coming online."
- Google Arts & Culture 360 degree videos Explore art, space, natural history and more
- 20 Virtual Field Trips for your Classroom: Ditch That Textbook "Virtual field trips allow us to take our students where the bus can’t. Students can make connections with locations, concepts or people through the power of virtual field trips. What are the best virtual field trips out there? And how can we take the learning even further? Here are 20 field trips and 10 activities to do while you're on one!" *Note that not all of the resources suggested here are free. However, there are some good suggestions for companion activities for any virtual exploration.
