KanPas demonstration compasses help teachers and instructors explain compass basics and introduce map-and-compass navigation. Their large, clear format makes it easier for a group to follow a demonstration during classroom lessons or outdoor training.
Classroom and Group Demonstrations
Use a demonstration compass to introduce compass components, directional references, and basic navigation concepts to students or groups before individual practice.
Outdoor Orienteering Instruction
Demonstration compasses can support introductory orienteering sessions, helping instructors explain how a compass is used alongside a map before learners move on to hands-on exercises.
Choose the Right Orienteering Teaching Compass
KanPas offers demonstration models in thumb-style and baseplate-style formats. Choose according to the compass layout you want to demonstrate and the teaching approach used in your class or training session.
Thumb Compass Demonstration Model
The MA-40-Model is a large-format demonstration version of a thumb compass. It is suitable for instructors who want to introduce the thumb-compass format and explain its basic features to a group.
Baseplate Compass Demonstration Model
The MA-47-4S Model is a large-format baseplate compass designed for teaching. It provides an alternative for instructors who prefer to demonstrate a baseplate-style compass when introducing map-and-compass navigation.
Who Uses Demonstration Compasses?

Schools, Scout Groups, and Outdoor Educators
Use a large demonstration compass to introduce compass reading and orienteering concepts in school lessons, scout activities, outdoor education programs, and beginner training sessions.
