Mark BlairOur purpose is to give our students a voice and power over their learning in the classroom. Through the use of handheld voters, students will “choose the adventure” we will take. They will begin by selecting where the adventure will begin: South America, Africa, Central America or Southeast Asia. They will then travel there by the experience Google Earth provides. Once we have arrived at the rain forest, the students again will have a choice to make. They will need to choose where we will visit first: the underwater, the forest floor, the understory, the canopy, or the emergent layer. Each area's unique characteristics will be explored. Each vote will determine the experience the class has in the rain forest. Every experience includes a variety of technology enriched lessons with things such as video, checkpoints for understanding, and photography. All places traveled to will involve a corresponding KML file created by the us. Since we are unable to take a field trip to the rain forest, we will bring the rain forest into the classroom. By learning about rain forests from around the world, students will be able to gain a global view of these unique habitats.

Chris HarrisA lesson idea using Google Earth and a projector screen. Don't worry, you don't really need a smart board to do it...
