Hello,

As a future teacher, I have seen a lot of technology around and being created for school purposes, and I believe that technology is a useful resource for students to learn. As technology is changing time through time, what are some excellent activities for space that students could do in their computers, ipads, or any electronic device?

Hello Minerva, 

Great way of thinking, its important to be current with new tools in technology that you can use in your classroom. NASA's eyes  https://eyes.nasa.gov is a free app developed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory to provide scientifically accurate views of the planets. You can explore the Earth, and our solar system, the universe and the spacecraft exploring them. You can use this app to create a variety of fun activities for your classroom. For example, you can assign each student a celestial object and have them explore it then create a poster to present to their peers.
