Ideas for using Google Earth

Many teachers make use of Google Earth when teaching GCSE Geography. The potential to create customised maps and other resources is what makes the site an invaluable tool for teachers. Revision materials can be created, with placemarks containing images and information.

I am just back from the Dublin Google GeoTeachers Institute.

The site for the two events is now up and running here.
Some interesting speakers and a busy schedule. I enjoyed sharing what I've done with Google Earth over the years.

I also presented about the Google World Wonders project, which I contributed some materials for.

Google Earth has great further potential for GCSE Geography. Future posts will explore this.
