Community reviews for The WildLab

My overall opinion is The WildLab looks like it has a ton of potential. The need for iPhones is a huge stumbling block, especially in the lower grades were few students have their own devices, and not always iPhones. It would be great if there was a way to use an iPad or iPod Touch to take the photo and document, in some way other than GPS, the location of the photo and then use the website, or a school's wifi, to upload the photo and add GPS data later. I am definitely going to pursue the offer from The WildLab to help with acquiring iPhones and I will also work with my Principal and Science teacher to try to figure out a way to allow students who have access to iPhones to bring them, and use them, at certain times as part of these lessons. The ability to get out of the classroom, and school, and take a local nature walk is an amazing opportunity. I think students will love it once we can get over the technology hurdle of needing iPhones.
