Like geocaching, a cache may be located at the site and can contain some relevant objects that add a physical dimension or symbolism to the cached story. Storycaching is designed to enhance the experience of both the storyteller and the listener. By allowing the storyteller to reference elements in the environment where the listener is located, the listener is provided a third dimension to the story, that of authentic physical feelings and sensory input. Storycaching is a concept created by Dr. Martin Horejsi at The University of Montana-Missoula. For example, a girl walks to a distinctive place in order to listen to a story on her iPod. Using map coordinates and a GPS, she climbs part way up a hill on the edge of town. When arriving at a specific spot according to the GPS, she locates a small box containing some relics. Sitting on a rock, she holds the objects in her hand listens to a sound file on her iPod. Overlooking the valley, the power of the Native American elder's words stir her emotions as landmarks, smells, the wind, and other sounds are referenced in the story, all possible because the person telling the story knows that the listener will be in a specific place while listening to the story. Or maybe, the story was recorded years ago when the elder sat in the very spot where the young girl now sits. A connection with the story is forged in a way never before experienced alone. Another example is where a high school student studying earth science walks through a river drainage with his teacher. But his teache

Society confronts educational change in an odd, entirely counter intuitive manner. On one hand we acknowledge that education can and should do a better job of preparing our children for the future while on the other we cling to the models of education that we knew. This led educational writer Will Richardson to state that 'the biggest barrier to rethinking schooling in response to the changing worldscape is our own experience in schools'. Our understandings of what school should be like and our imaginings of what school could be like are so clouded by this experience that even the best evidence for change is overlooked or mistrusted.

The Maqam e Ibrahīm (Station of Ibrahim) is a small square stone associated with Hazrat Ibrahim, Hazrat Ismail and their building of the Kaaba. The imprint on the stone came from Hazrat Ibrahim's feet. The imprints of Hazrat Ibrahim's feet appeared when Hazrat Ibrahim stood on the stone while building the Kaaba; when the walls became too high, Hazrat Ibrahim stood on the maqam, which miraculously rose up to let him continue building and also miraculously went down in order to allow Ismail to hand him stones.

Chad Pregracke is definitely not shying away from getting his hands dirty in the name of water conservation. Since he was 17 years old, Chad has been cleaning up trash in the Mississippi River-which happens to be his backyard-singlehandedly at first when no one seemed to care. He is living proof of the adage "leading by example." A teenager on a mission to clean up the second longest river in the United States sure makes Chad different-in a good way.
