Australian Environmental Education

DENISTONE WEST, NSW
Australia

Virtual Excursions create unique learning experiences for
students of all ages. Australian Environmental Education offers a range of video conferences called Science Made Easy. Specialising in Earth and Environmental Science programs are, interactive workshops designed to
inspire your students about the natural world.

In 2009 I began focusing on digital delivery of programs across Australia and I believe in the importance of virtual excursions as a learning platform. I think the best way is to participate in live, interactive video conference sessions. This enables students to ask questions and really be involved in their online education, interact not simply watch a video.
