Tidbits # 9

I am supposed to identify one way to implement a virtual field trip in my area of work. Well I am an Office Coordinator/Executive Assistant and I really can't see how I can plan a virtual field trip or even if it would be beneficial.

We had 350 members to keep track of, so we communicated through the app with our groups. For example, when we traveled, we used 7 charter buses. Therefore, the Remind me app was a very convenient and effective way to keep in touch and get the messages to the groups in the other buses. The director could communicate commands to each group. It made it much easier to communicate with everyone that way.  One Challenge would be if the app suddenly crashed. Is it a problem with your operating system, hardware, or other outside conditions. Connectivity could be another challenge to deal with, you also do not want an app that will drain your battery! Groups wishing to use apps such as Remind should conduct a test of the app in advance so that they can come up with a backu...
