Target Audience: Educators (K-12, Higher Ed, Informal Ed, etc.)
How to Participate: All participating sites must be MAGPI members and have H.323 videoconferencing capabilities. Only ONE registration per site is required.
Description:
This seminar explores the best classroom techniques for videoconferencing, virtual field trips and where to find content providers. Although we'll begin with an overview of various virtual field trips, each seminar features a particular content provider. After participating in this session, educators will understand the basic premises of virtual field trips, know how to use the CILC and MyK20 databases to find content providers, and will understand basic videoconference etiquette for educational programs. Participants are encouraged to come with stories of previous virtual field trip experiences or questions about specific content providers.
