Webinar: Virtually Field Tripping - What Works?

Wednesday, April 8, 2020

1:00pm PT | 2:00pm MT | 3:00pm CT | 4:00pm ET


This webinar will present experience and data to support field learning experiences brought to students when learning in situ is not possible. Dr. Ben Kennedy, Associate Professor in Physical Volcanology at the University of Canterbury and Dr. Jonathan Davidson, Crustal Modelling Technician at the University of Canterbury will join us from New Zealand for the webinar and share their expertise and insights on an innovative educational approach, virtual field trips, and hi-tech gaming, as a way to gain access to otherwise inaccessible situations or localities, such as students drilling into a magma chamber.

Hosted by: Undergraduate Field Experiences Research Network (U-FERN)
