Google Earth is an amazing tool that is really fun to play around with. i had used it before this assignment so i knew how to use it pretty well. The one thing I did learn though was using the watch feature to see what used to be and what is currently. I learned that through this assignment.
I would definitely be able to use this in my classroom. If I wanted to teach my students about the battle of Bunker and Breeds Hill I could take them them while inside that classroom! I could show them an overview of the area and explain the strategy of both the colonists and British. It really helps give a visual aid to those who would have trouble picturing it or just looking at it on a map.
