Google Earth (GE) is a Web tool that uses satellite imagery to capture and view up-to-date and accurate images of the Earth. |
We rate this Web tool 4.5/5 stars because it has an amazing array of features to engage students across all year levels.
Check out the current version which can be downloaded here:
We wish to thank several teachers, namely Marty Coombe, Malcolm Massie & Nicola Stewart

David and Sue,
The page is effectively designed and easy to navigate due to the page being broken-up by the use of an effective menu on the tools home page. The page is bright and colourful which is aided by good use of pictures and short videos explaining how the tool can be used. Another good inclusion was the implementation of an interview with a teacher who uses the tool in their classroom. The pages do not contain too much information, just enough to get the general idea of the tools capabilities across to the reader, which is good. A great inclusion to the site is the area with extra resources that includes lessons plans and lesson activities.
Overall, the page design is excellent and great job with the workshop presentation, well done!
