"Votre classe pourrait diriger un rover lunaire lors d’une mission simulée! Il y aura des rovers canadiens sur la Lune d’ici la fin de la décennie. Parlons sciences, Canadensys Aerospace et Avalon Space unissent leurs efforts pour donner aux jeunes Canadiens de la 6e à la 9e année (3e secondaire) l’occasion d’en apprendre davantage sur la technologie des rovers et sur la façon de planifier des missions sur la Lune.
Le Défi de recherche du rover lunaire invite des équipes d’élèves à présenter leur plan de mission pour courir la chance de contrôler à distance un rover Canadensys dans un environnement de type lunaire."

Win the chance for your class to operate a Lunar Rover in a simulated mission. There will be Canadian rovers on the Moon by the end of this decade. Let’s Talk Science, Canadensys Aerospace, and Avalon Space have teamed up to give Canadian youth in Grades 6-9 the opportunity to learn about rover technology and how to plan missions on the Moon.
The Lunar Rover Research Challenge invites teams of students to pitch their mission plans for the chance to remotely operate a Canadensys rover in a lunar-like environment.
Welcome to the Lunar Rover Research Challenge!
The challenge is for students to design a rover mission to find frozen water at the South Pole of the Moon. The activity is structured as a collaborative board game or digital game where students are guided through the design process. They equip their rover with scientific instruments, choose a target, then determine where to take measurements.
The experience is designed around 5 lessons:
1: Learn about Canada’s role in the upcoming lunar missions and the benefits of space exploration to life on Earth 2: Review the mission brief and learn how to plan a rover mission on the Moon 3: Plan the mission using an iterative design process scaffolded as a collaborative board game 4: Communicate ideas and prepare for submission 5: Reflect on the team’s experience and the impact of space exploration on society
Set in the context of space exploration, this project develops students’ design thinking, teamwork, and communication skills. Students must design their research mission by considering pros and cons, and weighing risks and rewards.
This challenge can be completed without a submission to the competition.

> QU’EST-CE QUE L’ÉCOLE DE L’OCÉAN? L’Université Dalhousie et l’Ocean Frontier Institute se sont associés avec l’Office national du film pour créer École de l’Océan, une expérience d’apprentissage par enquête gratuite et innovante.
À l’École de l’Océan, les apprenants explorent les habitats des fonds marins du golfe du Saint-Laurent au moyen de la réalité virtuelle. Ils se prennent en photo avec une baleine grandeur nature en réalité augmentée et dissèquent une morue virtuelle. Ils apprennent l’histoire de la morue racontée par un artiste autochtone dans une animation originale. Des vidéos à 360° les transportent dans des endroits qu’ils ne pourraient jamais visiter autrement, comme des forêts de kelp ou une île tropicale située à 550 kilomètres au large de la côte pacifique du Costa Rica.
L’expérience de l’École de l’Océan commence par une grande question posée aux élèves — un défi qui oriente leur enquête. Chaque élément média est accompagné d’une activité personnalisable que les enseignants peuvent attribuer par Google Classroom ou télécharger aux fins d’utilisation en classe. À la fin de chaque module, les apprenants élaborent un plan d’action visant à résoudre les problèmes sociaux et environnementaux auxquels ils ont été sensibilisés.
L'École de l’Océan donne à la prochaine génération de citoyens de l’Océan, de chercheurs et d’innovateurs les connaissances et les outils pour explorer et concevoir des solutions innovantes aux problèmes urgents auxquels font face les océans de la planète.
> POUR ACCÉDEZ Si vous en êtes à votre première visite à l'École de l'Océan, vous devrez créer et confirmer votre compte ONF.

Although it’s hard to replace the physical feeling of being inside the Canadian Museum of History, one virtual exhibit gives you the chance see a standout ceiling mural even closer than you can in person. The circular painting, “Morning Star,” by Alex Janvier, decorates the ceiling of the dome of the Haida Gwaii Salon within the museum, towering above a bright white staircase. Online, you can zoom in on the mural and spin it to see the four quadrants in high detail. A click of the plus sign in the corner causes a series of links to pop up over the mural itself, with photos and videos attached that explain the significance of each part of the artwork. Other exhibits listed in the museum’s “Online Exhibitions” section include a dedicated website explaining Inuit prints from Cape Dorset in Nunavut (with videos, interviews, pictures and interactive puzzle games to recreate prints yourself), and a clickable playhouse that has different “rooms” that lead viewers to different children’s toys from Canada’s past.
