Incorporating geo-caching into the classroom could be done in a lesson about civil war history with a visit to a local battlefield depending where you live. The lesson could include handouts with maps and GPS locations. The use of a GPS device could incorporate technology and discuss how the use of satellite positioning is used. The locations on the battlefield could be found and historical moments could be taught in the field outside of the classroom.

Some of the benefits of a lesson like this include:

• incorporating technology
• history lessons
• active, less sedentary learning

This is a chance to involve experiential learning outside of a classroom.
