High School Biology Trip: Costa Rica

2/25/2019

0 Comments

 
A few years ago I traveled to Costa Rica with my high school biology students to study living things in one of the top biodiversity hotspots in the world. A student traveler and I kept a blog on the experience. I reposted that blog on Experiential Learning Depot in hopes that you will be inspired to incorporate travel into whatever learning environment you're a part of.
