In the Classroom
If your class is learning about the oceans of the world, delve even "deeper" by sharing this site on your projector or interactive whiteboard. Have cooperative learning groups explore specific areas of this site and create a multimedia presentation to share with the class. Have students create a PowerPoint Online, reviewed here. This tool allows for narrating and adding text to a picture. Challenge students to find a photo (legally permitted to be uploaded), and then narrate the photo as if it were a news report. To find Creative Commons images for student projects (with credit, of course), try Vecteezy, reviewed here. Or, bring even more geography skills into the project by having groups create a Zeemaps, reviewed here, sharing exactly WHERE the oceans are located (with audio stories and pictures included)!You must be registered and logged in to add items to your favorites.
