Explorer Classroom | Exploring Rainforest Technologies with Andy Whitworth

Andy Whitworth and the team at Osa Conservation are working to expand rainforest conservation technology and real-time citizen science. The team works with iNaturalist and Instant Wild to catalogue Osa's flora and fauna and monitor threatened wildlife in real-time. This rainforest tech event will highlight how you can use this same technology.

We believe that everyone, of every race, identity, experience, and ability should be able to safely explore the wonder of our world. We encourage you to take time today to watch these resources that showcase the valuable and diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and insights from some of the Black Explorers within our global Explorer community:

Here are some suggested activities for your students to do after the event:
K-5: Draw a picture or photo strip of something you learned.
Grades 5-8: Write a short “news article” about what you learned.
High School: Produce a short video that explains something you learned today.

Share your students activities by tagging @NatGeoEducation and using #ExplorerClassroom on Twitter. Our team will share your student’s work with the Explorer.

Please Note: Explorer Classroom sessions are live events hosted on YouTube. They are open to the public and recorded. Please share these terms with parents of students who will participate live on camera. If any parents or students prefer not to be on camera, please accommodate their wishes in your classroom.
