Add the hands on experimentation and learning becomes real. With technology and Internet connections, we are able to observe all sorts of things beyond the world we can touch. The virtual world affords options that are not available in reality. For example, we can watch a volcano erupt . After watching the eruption, students can develop a hypothesis about why it happens and then research their hypothesis.
Students have the opportunity to learn about volcanic eruptions without actually experiencing one.
From our classrooms, students are able to participate with scientists, other students and researchers all around the world. Science can be fun. Our goal is to help teachers and students experience the fun of exploration together.
