By incorporating drones as tools for monitoring and surveying the world, we empower students to explore Earth from new perspectives, develop problem-solving skills and understand the importance of conservation and sustainability. Through hands-on experiences, they also strengthen their ability to communicate, collaborate, harness technology and care for each other while working to protect the planet. This session will demonstrate hands-on drone activities to engage students and support problem-solving, and share practical strategies for integrating drones into geography lessons. Participants will gain ideas to enhance fieldwork and connect lessons to real-world applications by integrating drones.
