Breaking into Science

Yesterday my partner and I went on a digital scavenger hunt.  It was a lot of fun, because we ended up exploring parts of campus that I had never seen before.  Our theme was "Science" so we sort of let ourselves into a few laboratories that may or may not have been open to the public.  We found a green house, a collection of rocks, microscopes, centrifuges, and other lab equipment.  Here is the photo album we made:


If we were to do this again, I would want to condense the theme somewhat.  We would probably been better off with the theme of "Plants" or "Labs" and not just "Science."  That being said, I really enjoyed the experience.  I feel like this would be a great activity to do with students.  It would be a concrete way for them to connect the real world with their content in a super fun way.  The only issue might be finding enough digital cameras for the groups to work.
