The Exploration Program is an LbE Hawaii exclusive program where SCAVENGER HUNT meets HIGH TECH. LbE Hawaii offers participant groups 4 unique locations in Hawaii to explore: Honolulu, Waikiki, University of Hawaii at Manoa, or Hilo on the Big Island. These locations offer more than just site seeing and shopping - from culture to meeting new people to learning history. Instead of a guided tour of these locations, student participants become a team of explorers and must navigate around using only a provided map and app-based program. As a competition, teams must earn as many points as possible by discovering various zones and solving missions. Islanders act as silent tour guides, assisting students to think critically, as well as opening up discussions at each zone.
