How can schools ensure their students are being heard? What projects are students truly passionate about? What do students wish to share with their peers and teachers and how can schools celebrate the successes of their student community whilst inspiring others?

Geography crosses many disciplines. In this session, you’ll explore Google Geo tools for lessons, activities, and student content creation. We’ll explore Google Earth Projects, Google My Maps, Google ExpeditionsPro, Google Arts & Culture, and 360° imagery with Google Story Spheres. These tools give students enriched learning experiences that opens minds, teaches perspective, and sparks curiosity. As the global pandemic settles, students can use these tools to give voice to the lessons learned through engaging teacher-driven lessons and student content creation that fosters a better understanding of our world.

Through this workshop, we will identify strategies and develop a plan that includes a focus on continuous improvement through reflection. We will also cultivate iterative mindsets for caring and connected communities so that educators and students alike experience a sense of purpose and joy in their everyday learning.
