Using Google Earth in the learning designs

When students use Google Earth as a learning tool, they will have the ability to instantly locate the origins of their subject. For example, students in the primary years are required to learn about Asia as part of the requirements identified in the Australian Curriculum. In this case, students may correspond with schools in those areas and will have the ability to directly identify those areas in comparison to their own location by using Google Maps. Students will develop a clear understanding of the globe, time differences, distances, cultural diversity, geography etc, by using Google Earth. It aides in spatial awareness and makes tasks meaningful, current, and real life.
