Welcome to the online home of the Norwood High School Virtual Field Trip PD!
WORKSHOP PURPOSE: Participants will learn how to create, implement, and asses a lesson where students will visit ONLINE destinations, but still have many of the same learning benefits as participating in a traditional field trip. Creating, implementing, and assessing students with virtual field trips is a quick and easy way to support other classroom learning experiences and build student technological literacy.
