Below are this week's public, free, and interactive Webinars through LearnCentral.org, the social learning network for education that I work on for Elluminate.

The time of the events below will show up automatically in your own time zone when you are registered in LearnCentral and when you have chosen your time zone in your profile, or you can check the new event time converter on the event page. Event recordings are posted and available after the events if you aren't able to attend them live.

Rushton Hurley. American students lack knowledge of world and local geography. Outdoor resources are being used less -- to the point that we could lose our natural treasures. The more physically engaged students are in their learning, the more effective and permanent the learning will be. Integrating GPS technology, geocaching, and Google Earth into all subject areas is one way to meet many students' needs all at once. Participants will learn about specific projects, including Google Earth placemarks, using wikis for collaborative planning, EduCaching ™ and other curricular uses of geocaching, and GPS units for data collection.
