Educational applications of geocaching and geotrekking with special regard to scientific and mathematical education. Includes resources for teachers and a wealth of information.

... integrating localized webs of geocaches, problem solving and educational content to support learning



Under development - please excuse the rough corners...

We are just getting started with this page - here are two sample google earth activities:

Local fractions consolidation activity

A geotrek created for a local math conference in 2006

We have provided these activities in MS Office Document format so that you can adjust them to meet the needs of your students and your curriculum.

We encourage you to send in modified versions, or other Fixed location geotreks to share with other teachers - who might use them as exemplars to support them in the development of their own Fixed-Location Geotreks.

Alternatively you might consider converting your geotrek into a Google-Earth Geotrek to share with others who might not be able to travel to your Geotrek location. It might even be done as a class project!
