Activities include researching, charting, and graphing information about endangered species and creating a multimedia chronicle of adventures to exciting destinations like deserts, rain forests, and oceans.

  
 Futurekids Media International
 
Students assist a media organization, Futurekids Media International (FMI), by using their technology skills to integrate technology into the company. Activities include creating a multimedia kiosk presentation to promote FMI and designing and producing an online game for the company's web site.
