Videoconferencing: Connecting with Nature

Video Camera.

Visit the Canadian Museum of Nature without leaving your school: our videoconferencing programme provides you with the option to connect live* with a Museum educator who will use museum specimens, examples of field research, and scientific data to explore a topic related to your science curriculum.

Topics include biodiversity, invasive species, conservation, classification, evolution, and climate change, among others. Pre-videoconference activities are available to be used in class ahead of time so students can prepare for the live workshop.

Programme must be booked at least 3 weeks in advance. Museum education staff will answer your questions and discuss adapting the programme to your needs.

* All that is required for the videoconference is Internet Protocol videoconferencing equipment on your end. Check with your technology support staff to see if they can make the necessary arrangements, or contact us for more information. Museum education staff are available to answer your questions and discuss adapting the programme to your needs.
