  Geog: Online Games


Mission:Explore
http://www.missionexplore.net
Mission:Explore
Mission:Explore is a game, but not as you know it. There are two aims to the game. One is to collect points and unlock rewards. The other is to experience the world in new ways by doing vitally important random and warped challenges. The more missions you do the more rewards you'll unlock and the more fun you'll have during your stay on planet Earth.
This website is brought to you by The Workshop and The Geography Collective. It has been created with the support of the Technology Strategy Board, GeoVation at Ordnance Survey and Ideas in Transit. Mission:Explore is based on the children's books of the same name which are written by The Geography Collective and illustrated by Tom Morgan-Jones.

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.

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.
