Project 6 involved creating a Virtual Field Trip (VFT) on Microsoft Power Point.  The goal of a VFT is to increase the usefulness of Internet sources for students by carefully selecting content embedded in website(s) to enhance students' learning by using technology.  VFTs also allow content to be enhanced belong a text book.  Teachers can use VFT in a classroom for many reasons; if the budget is low, teachers can use the VFT instead of  field trip.  It is also a hands on way to involve students either whole group or small group.  Provided is a VFT on Ellis Island.  It allows students to explore what it was like an immigrant coming from another country to America.
