I'm Cardboard: http://www.imcardboard.com/
-different types of Google Cardboards
-https://edu.google.com/expeditions/#get-started

Uses in the classroom:
-virtual fieldtrips -- students can visit the places they're studying
-not recommended for students younger than 3rd grade
-presentation tool
-could use it on an iPad instead of the Cardboard (iPad app)
-can we create our own expeditions?

Ways to fund:
-Could the district buy a couple of class sets (including cardboard & phone)?
-Could we use just a small station of Cardboards?
-Donor's Choose to crowd fund it


The Planning Process:

Pre-Expedition Prep
  • Preview the expedition from both the teacher and student perspectives, establish talking points and supporting activities
Before the Expedition
  • How are students building background knowledge to prepare for the expedition?
During the Expedition
  • How are students recording and processing what they learn from the expedition?
After the Expedition
  • How are students synthesizing and analyzing what they learn from the expedition
  • What additional learning / inquiry was inspired by what students experienced on this expedition?
