The storymaps arcgis is similar to the Google Earth gallery (replacing Voyagers in Google Earth) learning package I shared earlier. Can think about using them too for inquiry-based learning!
You can embed them in SLS or blog as well as Google sites which I did.
For Lower sec
For Google site, just insert embed the url. For blog you can go to iframe generator to create the html code to insert into your blog like the one on Global water store below.

Gotten my students to share their ideal holiday. To make it more immersive, I gotten them to take a picture of themselves and then superimposed their picture over a holiday destination of their choice using remove.bg

b. Take a picture of yourself and goto https://www.remove.bg/ and remove the background of your picture.
c. Add the background of the picture you have downloaded.
Instruction for the description of the ideal holiday on Padlet with the photo

The students looked at the posts on the padlet after they have posted theirs. They were more engaged in the lesson and I was able to get them to relate to the tourism system and they could understand the concepts of push and pull factors via authentic examples given by their peers.
Voyager in Google Earth has moved. It's no longer available in the main app but showcased on the website.
Explore the stories on the gallery here. Love the one on sea level rise and changing forests.

Gotten my students to create the sorting game. Purpose is for them to apply what they have learned under the roles of different stakeholders and the different approaches in sustainable development.
The game Vortex from classtool is easy to use and free with no need for login.
Do check out Master Teacher Kah Mun's post on facilitating the use of dynamic geographical knowledge for 21CC learning in Geography:
https://geoconnectors.blogspot.com/2024/03/to-unlock-21cc-we-need-powerful.html?m=1
Maude's typology is a useful tool for identifying specifically how the disciplinary knowledge of geography is powerful.
A lot of emphasis had been placed in 1 and 2 in our curriculum. For 3, I have always reminded the students they already have some geography knowledge in them and with the lessons in geography they will be able to awaken the dormant knowledge and see them through the geographical lens.
4 is something which I would like to develop. A good resource for Geography in upper sec Singapore and climate clusters on building up our resilience against the challenges we are facing. A short quiz followed by a short debate based on solution cards to the challenges Singapore faces in water, energy and food.

5 is something I have been advocating through my geography blog which I update current geographical issues. They need to be a concerned global citizen as they learn that geography is alive!
