Akula Elitnautvik

Date of visit:

Sept. 7th & 8th, 2000

Akula is the second of the two sites visited in Kasigluk. The day was spent working with teachers and their students in the classroom with the "Hands-on approach". The use of iBooks made it easy to relocate.

Friday afternoon was spent working with teachers. It was exciting to be able to access the Internet without any wires! Richard Taylor provided a world of information about surfing! How 'bout those blueberries!

All ages of students actively engaged in using computers...

... from using the software to using it as an information tool!

As a student practices at his seat, a projector demonstrates applications on the board for easy reference.

Taking turns and helping each other enhances what we learn.

Volunteers and Elders work with students of all ages in
Traditional Yup'ik Dance.

Check this out!

The students practice using a digital camera!

The board walks are used for travel by foot or four wheeler .

Not bad for a first time action shot!

Kasigluk's Holy Trinity church is at the end of the board walk.

In taking a picture, the position of the sun can effect a photo!

Smiles from Akula!

The great photographers pose for a shot.
