We would like to use this Travel Bug as a means of spreading the word about the possibilities for Geocaching in education!
As a Technology Coach for a Michigan school district, it is my job to expose and educate both students and teachers about the possibilities of technology in education, and GPS technology is something that I am eager to share. Geocaching has great possibilities for lesson in math, science, geography, technology, and so much more.
I will be sharing the progress of this Travel Bug with my school district's students and staff periodically. As such, with this Travel Bug, we ask a huge favor:
When logging this bug, could you please tell us how you think geocaching and/or GPS technology can used in education?
Having writer's block? Here are a few prompts that might help you come up with a response:
- What skills are taught by geocaching?
- What subject areas (math, science, social studies, etc) could use geocaching, and how?
- What have you learned from geocaching?
- Can you tell us something neat about where you are from or where your found this trackable?
Thank you so much for your responses!
