Using Google Earth in Education

This technology is a great tool for geography and maths learning.
Learners can 'fly' over another country, or zone in on a city street or bridge.
Learners can see houses, land formations, and land colour (dry or moist colouring, for example).
Learners can calculate distances with latitude and longitude figures.

These are just some examples of how I would use Google Earth in education. It's a great engaging tool, as well as for activities following on.
