Teenagers with a thirst for adventure, exploration
and discovery join the expedition team for one of the circumnavigation
legs, such as Biking Australia or Kayaking Indonesia. As well as
filming for a children's TV show our Young Explorers also work with
professional educators to develop standards based curricula sent
back via satellite to the expedition website.

series from the Australian outback...
The Virtual Learning Series is a non realtime
learning resource available to classrooms via CD ROM and the web.
Short video clips drawn from the TV show introduce students and
teachers to engaging environmental and cultural aspects of the country
most recently visited by the expedition team. These appetizers then
segue into standard's aligned lesson activities in a variety of
subject disciplines such as maths, science, literacy, geography,
history, information technology (IT), education for sustainable
development (ESD) and physical education.
The first title from our recent leg through Australia
is now available for viewing...
