Rationale
   
Students learn about the life in the Antarctica through one of its pioneer explorers, Douglas Mawson.
Students continue to expand their knowledge and understanding of Antarctica.
Students design and create their own interactive Xpression demonstrating technical skill and understanding of the ideas and concepts related to their topic.
   
Student Tasks
 
Using the Kahootz "fly" control students navigate their way around Mawson's hut and click on objects to discover more about the Antarctic explorer
Students develop ideas about their topic and draft their Xpression as a storyboard
Students produce a Kahootz Xpression on a selected aspect of life in the Antarctica. They might chose another Antarctic explorer or explore living and working in the Antarctica today at one of the four permanent research stations of the Australian Antarctic Division.
Students share completed Xpressions with other students, discussing what they did and how they did it
