ANDRILL’s website provides a wide range of information and activities from simple interactives, photos and images, videos, interviews and blogs from the field, and hands-on inquiry activities developed by the ARISE teachers, to an explanation of the science of drilling for sediments and developing a paleoclimate record from the evidence found in the sediment core samples. This site includes information on ice sheets and ice shelves, drill rig technology. Educators’ journals from the field in Antarctica explain the science in words and photos for non-technical audiences and children. Teachers can sign up to receive polar science curriculum materials and e-mail updates and link to many other worthwhile websites. Activity: On ...

What is more fun than learning about penguins? How about adopting one for your classroom! A teacher traveling to Antarctica with Dr. David Ainley, an adelie penguin scientist, will send your class pictures and updates on your adopted penguin’s health and activities, as she aides in his research. Even after the research expedition ends, this website will provide images and activities for teaching about penguins and Antarctic science. Activity: Students will be able to adopt a breeding pair of adelie penguins, and analyze the factors and variables that will make their pair successful parents. Pictures of each pair will be posted on the Internet for students to observe along with other data they can record and analyze. The interactive website will also provide general...

A real-time view of sunlight on the Earth. You can view a flat map, the Earth from the sun’s view, the moon’s view, and a night view. Understanding why the Arctic and Antarctic experience 24 hours of sunlight or darkness becomes clear with this visual representation. Activities: - An ideal way to use this website would be to acquire an old computer having the capability of displaying this website constantly in the classroom. Students can observe daily, monthly, seasonally how sunlight changes on the planet in relation to the Earth’s rotations, tilt and revolutions. - Have students measure across the map and then across the sunlight at their latitude. They can work with ratios of available sunlight and compare them to other places on the globe. Over...
