Educational Potential

Playing Pokemon GO together can be a great staff team-building activity for back-to-school professional development.

Keep a log of where the students go, what they see, and what they are learning as they play, including historic places and points of interest.

It's a resource from a teacher that aligns learning experiences from the game to Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences.

Students can calculate how many miles they would need to walk (converting from the kilometers used in the game) in order to hatch the different eggs. Then estimate how many calories they would burn in hatching one egg. Or see how much weight they can lose playing the game with this calculator. And there's a Pokemon GO interval training workout they can do while playing.

Many of the Pokestops (the app's locations) in the game showcase a local business, attraction or historical site. Since students already have their phone in their hands, have them use the Google Street View app to take a 360° spherical panoramic image of the Pokestop.

The Journal component of the game automatically records the time and date of the events as they occur, that students can use to figure out the average number of events per day or to graph their allocation of items from a Pokestop.

The app encourage students to either gather the GPS points of their finds as they play the game or have them collect that info when they are done for the day.
