Simulated Field Trips

A simulated field trip is a powerful way for students to create vivid experiences in their minds. Many older people remember when the major form of entertainment was radio. With its absence of visual images, radio required its listeners to create mental pictures of the way various characters looked and acted. It was common for listeners to imagine landscapes, cities, and any number of exotic settings, thereby stretching their creativity.

Using Simulations for Instructional Purposes

An educational simulation is an instructional activity that models aspects of the real world to teach one or more concepts. Simulations— especially those that involve students in
kinesthetic learning experiences—are used frequently in Project WILD.

     
 
   

New "Technology Connections" were incorporated into a number of activities from the Project WILD and Project WILD Aquatic  K-12 Curriculum and Activity Guides. These "Technology Connections" will encourage students to use the Internet, a variety of computer software, video recording equipment, probeware and other technologies while learning about wildlife or sharing what they've discovered. Those with earlier editions of the Project WILD Guides can download the Technology Connections by clicking the links below.

NAAEE has a new information and networking site. - EELinked

More than a searchable catalog of internet links about environmental education, EE linked is a global community of environmental educators. Here you can easily find and download EE materials, post your own content, ask questions, share lesson plans and resources, and find and collaborate with EE partners. Tell your story to environmental educators, share your successes, comment on EE resources, and build on each other's program ideas.

Part of this network is the Guidelines for Excellence.

The Guidelines for Excellence network is meant to be a one stop place to learn about the Guidelines, download documents and share information. Take a look!
