Post: New online weather simulation: "Windward"
Posted by Jill Nyhus on 11/10/05

"Windward: Outsmart the Weather in A Race Around the World,"
is a free, new Internet weather game for students ages 9-13.

Demonstrating the educational power of digital content and
broadband technology, Windward pits players� navigational
wits against challenges such as tricky currents and
developing hurricanes and thunderstorms. The route around
the globe consists of four legs, and players will confront
two weather challenges on each leg.

Windward is an initiative of Cable in the Classroom (United
States), in cooperation with the National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (US), Discovery Education (US), and The
Weather Channel (US).

Play Windward now!
