Geocaching for Educators (teachinghacks)
http://tinyurl.com/fbnx4 Geocaching for Educators (teachinghacks) Geocaching is an outdoor treasure-hunting game in which the participants use a Global Positioning System receiver or other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers (called "geocaches" or "caches") anywhere in the world. A typical cache is a small waterproof container containing a logbook and "treasure", usually toys or trinkets of little monetary value. | Introducing Geocaching to Students | Lesson Cache Ideas | |

Food Force
http://www.food-force.com/ "Food Force" is a free online game from the United Nations World Food Program that sends children ages 8 to 13 on six realistic aid missions. Food Force serves as a classroom tool for teaching about hunger. From the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), the world? largest humanitarian agency, Food Force is an educational video game telling the story of a hunger crisis on the fictitious island of Sheylan. Comprised of 6 mini-games or ?issions? the game takes young players from an initial crisis assessment through to delivery and distribution of food aid, with each sequential mission addressing a particular aspect of this challenging process. The game has wide cross-curricular appeal (geography, social studies, health, etc.) and can strengthen strategic thinking and decision-making skills. It is an ideal lesson follow-up or homework activity. |
