Virtual Field Trips

You can't always take your students everywhere you want to take them in order to teach them something. You are sometimes just limited to your classroom. But that doesn't mean you can't take them places! With virtual field trips you can take your class on a trip right from your computer! The website http://www.uen.org/tours/fieldtrips2.shtml has many choices on where you would like to take a trip to.


You can choose any subject you want and it will tell you certain things in that subject that you can take a visit to. For example if you choose Social Studies, you can then choose civil war. It then shows you photos of the civil war and shares with you alot of information on it. It is very easy to learn about it if you take a virtual field trip to it. This tool enhances learning because it gives students an opportunity to see how things were right from the computer.
