Another award winning website from the US National Science Foundation funded 'Passport to Knowledge' series.
Students have the opportunity to go on an electronic field trip to Antarctica.
The site includes reports, photographs and journal entries from the five scientists in the Ecological Research project team based at Palmer Station, Antarctica. Children who become involved in the project and get the chance to interact with the men and women in the team. The website includes a very good map section. The Educational Coordinator has produced a complete set of lesson and activity plans. There is also a 'Journal Scavenger Hunt' where the students solve a set of clues by reading the online journals from the research team.
