There are lots of 360º videos on YouTube that can be used in the classroom to help students construct new learning through immersive experiences.
I've curated several sample videos in this playlist. All of these are viewable with Google Cardboard.
Today we're going to take a hike with some friends. As you explore this place, I encourage you to think and wonder about what you're experiencing. Let's get started!
Background
We'll be hiking on Eiger's North Face in Switzerland. The map below will give you an idea of where you're going to be.
What kind of plate boundary is here?
What kind of biome is this?
Watch It
Watch the video below. This is a 360˚ image, so you can look in all directions – left, right, forward, backwards, up, and down. If you have a mobile device, scan the QR code or visit link below. Use the cardboard button on the video and hook up Google Cardboard to be immersed in the hike! For the best experience, turn your phone sideways (landscape).
Think About It
As you experienced this climb, you probably had questions and ideas. Turn and talk with your classmates to reflect on these questions.
