Web 2.0 and Integrating
Technology in Outdoor Education, Educator’s Workshop
Saturday, August 10th
(9 am-Noon)
Outdoor education is meant to
be outdoors, but that doesn’t mean that it has to exclude technology. In this
workshop, we’ll introduce educators to Web 2.0 and some of the sites available
for educators interested in integrating technology into their classes. This
will include the categories of website applications, mobile apps, and GPS
applications, that can be integrated into onsite and offsite learning. We’ll
cover everything from watershed health monitoring to invasive species and
migration tracking. This workshop is open to formal and informal educators
alike and is targeted to middle school instructors. Preregistration required
online, go to http://si.doubleknot.com/event/web-20-and-integrating-technology-in-outdoor-education-educators-workshop
