Explore...the world and beyond with technology tools
Published on Jul 28, 2017
Four different technology tools: QR codes, Aurasma, green screens and Google expeditions can support, engage and expand learning. The focus will center on exploring places taught in elementary SOLs but teachers could use these tools for much more such as science habitats, animals, current people, and historical figures and places.
