Most of us can remember heading out on those big yellow school buses in elementary school on field trips with all of our classmates, teachers, and parent chaperons. However, there are some unfortunate ones that cannot go on field trips. Google+ has an answer for that.
“Connected Classrooms” will let students around the world to take part in virtual field trips on Google+ Hangouts, allowing them to see places that they never would have imagined they could see. Today, Google launched the program with three field trips: Seattle Aquarium, Minnesota Zoo, and the Solar Impulse hangar.
Teachers will be able to take their classrooms on virtual field trips hosted by organizations such as National Geographic, Matilda the Musical, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and many more partners.
