Curtin University is proud to announce that it is the Australian organiser for participation in the 2014 UNEP-DHI Eco Challenge 2.0.
Water is essential for all life as we know it. A simple fact that sometimes feels forgotten as political and commercial interests take priority.
UNEP-DHI Eco Challenge 2.0 provides an exciting and authentic learning experience for students aged 11-17 through the online strategic game "Aqua Republica". Addressing national curriculum priority dimensions of Sustainability and Asia and Australia's engagement with Asia the experience provides many learning opportunities across Social Studies, Science, Humanities, Health and Physical Education, English, Geography, and more.

I re-discovered this brainstorming/mind mapping app this week. We use Google Apps for Education so this is very useful as it connects with Google Drive nicely and the Google based email accounts allow for really good realtime collaboration. A couple of my learners had a some issues connecting, but we got there in the end. Definitely worth a look and a play.
