8 The SunWise School Program Guide ✔ SunWise Internet Learning Site and UV Database In order to make the best use of innovative educational and information-sharing technologies, EPA developed an Internet Learning Site as part of its main SunWise Program Web site. Students and teachers can use the site to: Report and interpret daily measurements of UV radiation, weather conditions, and information regarding sun-protection practices. Search for the UV Index in their community using a ZIP-code searchable UV Index database. Chart, graph, and map UV measurements. Participate in online, interactive educational activities. Locate additional resources on sun protection, health, and the environment. Once schools register, teachers will receive secure IDs for entering daily UV data on the Internet Learning Site. ✔ Publications EPA has published a number of documents to help your school be SunWise. These can be used as warm-up reading exercises, copied and placed in school newsletters, used as part of field trip permission forms, etc. All of the documents are available on the SunWise Web site at <www.epa.gov/sunwise/publications.html> and in paper form. For free printed copies, please contact the National Service Center for Environmental Publications at (800) 490-9198.
