The ArcGIS School Bundle provides K12 teachers and students logins to robust tools for free for instructional use, but sometimes (because of technology or policy) logging in just isn't possible. But there is still much that teachers and students can do, and learn. Some options are below, and learners can paste screenshots or video clips into a word processor document (being sure to record the source address as well and credit the author where possible).
1. https://www.esri.com/geoinquiries - Learn classroom content within ArcGIS.com
2. https://storymaps-classic.arcgis.com - 'Gallery' (up top) holds pointers to years of content
3. https://storymaps.arcgis.com - 'Resources' holds the new and rapidly growing archive
4. https://livingatlas.arcgis.com - Curated content, particularly layers and apps
5. https://www.arcgis.com - Click 'Map' ('Scene' does some of these, a bit differently; try it!)
6. https://learn.arcgis.com/en/gallery/#?p=agol&c=mapping - The 'Learn ArcGIS' catalog of activities, filtered on ArcGIS Online and Mapping, has lessons, articles, 'paths' (sequences of resources), which can be explored, often begun, and sometimes even completed without login.
7. https://learn.arcgis.com/en/educators/#/library - The 'Teach with GIS' catalog of activities is all about working with ArcGIS Online, and includes lessons, readings, apps, and maps with which to build skills in tools relating to particular content. Similar to the Learn gallery, these are often scenario-driven projects.
8. https://esriurl.com/agoschoolcomp - The ArcGIS Online Competition for US High School and Middle School Students is an opportunity for students to do research projects and present their findings in a Story Map. It shows what students who have logins can do, when permitted. The ArcGIS Hub site linked here has intro and results from 2017 onward.
9. https://esriurl.com/agousestrategies - This document shows different modes of interaction with ArcGIS Online, and encourages teachers to understand the differences, including the option that teachers could log in to prepare content, which students could perhaps access without being logged in.
10. https://www.esri.com/schools - The site has links to stories, rich resources, and the form with which schools can request software, enabling students to do even more.
