Google Workshop - Hour Five, the one after lunch

We are learning to use Google Earth as a teaching tool. We have seen examples teachers have used with class content which has a geographic component (journey of an explorer, melting of a glacier). We have now learned to create, annotate, save, upload and post a link to a Google Earth location. So as a teacher, I could give an electronic handout with links to locations on the globe that were relevant to the content.

My office on Google Earth To make this link work, you will need to have Google Earth installed on your computer. If your browser asks what to do with the file, you can either download it and then open it, or just directly open it with Google Earth.
