CORE Education's LEARNZ virtual field trips.
CORE Education helps students access the inaccessible through its LEARNZ virtual field trips. Learners can visit inspiring places around Aotearoa, Antarctica and beyond from their classrooms or home, and access the largest online contemporary educational resource in the country.
LEARNZ field trips are free for educators and students in Aotearoa New Zealand and provide access to online video and audio feeds, activities and experiences that:
- Allow students to travel online with a LEARNZ teacher to a real place to meet field trip guides and experts.
- Provide incredible opportunities for students to get "behind the scenes".
- Support them to explore possible career opportunities.
- Provide real-life connections between students and industry.
- Are authentic, flexible and safe.
- Are designed and led by trained, experienced New Zealand teachers.
- Can be used by students at home and school.
- Are strongly integrated withThe New Zealand Curriculum.
There is no one way to use LEARNZ resources. Teachers and ākonga can use all the components of a field trip or pick and choose what’s most relevant to their class and curriculum.
Each field trip package includes material to prepare for the three-day online field trip. Teachers can use supporting resources to spark curiosity, activate and build background knowledge and inspire learning in their students.
