#10 of the December Ed Tech 12 List: Field Trip Zoom--"Live and interactive content for your class"
The Ed Tech 12 List #10 is...Field Trip Zoom. A few weeks back during our TEDx jr. sessions, Liz Brady's session "Connecting to the Outside World" talked about bringing the content area alive by finding ways to bring the outside world into the classroom. Field Trip Zoom offers that ability. It provides an online service that allows you to search, order, schedule and connect to hundreds of live interactive programs through a rapidly expanding network of museums, science centers, historical sites and other cultural organizations. (Note: it is free to sign up for the site, but there is typically a small free for the programs from the provider however some programs offer free options with an application for a scholarship or grant). What a great way to bring a new level of understanding to classroom material...definitely worth taking a look!!
