Virtural+Field+Trip+Directions

Pick your seat on the bus and lets get started! Today's field trip involves six stops at various locations around the world to learn all about nuclear energy and its related topics. You will do everything from touring nuclear power plants around the world as well as try to run one yourself (without causing a meltdown!). You will be working independently throughout this field trip. Everyone will have the chance to be at the controls and learn about what interests them the most. There are six stops on your trip today. Each one builds on information from the last stop, so please visit the stops in the order they are presented. Most stops should take you about 20 minutes to explore. The first stop has a lot of introductory information and animations to show you how it all works. This one may take you a little longer to get through. Then, at the second stop, you get behind the control panel of a nuclear power plant. Can you run the controls without a meltdown?! The total field trip will take about three class periods. At the end of the third class period, we will take time to share what we've learned and found interesting at each of the stops. I will be circulating around the room during the duration of the field trip. I will help you with any technical difficulties, answer any questions that I can, or point you in the right direction to get the information you are looking for. So lets get going!
