The N.E.W. Zoological Society has received a grant from the Derenne Family Fund for the Environment of the Greater Green Bay Community Foundation for $6,187 will support the Education Department at the NEW Zoo & Adventure Park. The grant will help provide tablets, along with related materials like cases and a charging station, for use in the Zoo’s “edZOOcational” programs. The new tablets allow the Zoo to both enhance their existing programs with new, interactive equipment, and to create new programs using technologies that were not available to their students in the past. The iPads have already been integrated into a variety of programs this summer, including some Zoo Camps, scout programs, on-site discovery stations, and more.
