The content of our science project is that the students learn about different physical characteristics of Utah compared to the world.

The pedagogy of our science project is that the teacher needs to be involved in this project because she'll have to make sure the students stay on-topic and that they understand the difference between wetlands, forests, and deserts.

The technology of our science project is to teach students how to navigate through Google Earth. It is a good fit with the content in pedagogy because the students need to learn about geographical components of Utah and by using technology they can see Utah in a realistic way.

  1. Kelsey! I hadn't thought about the fact that technology like google earth can bring out independence in children. I really liked that!

  2. I would love it if each of my kids had a computer...and children could have sustained silent computer time along with sustained silent reading.
