Google Maps
Google Maps is lots of fun. I have used it with my class when we have been discussing significant sites in Australia and the local area. I am not sure how I feel about ‘Google Street’ though. There is a picture of my house and my car parked in the driveway. It is an invasion of privacy really.
Google also have something called ‘Doodle 4 Google My Australia’. It shows a mark from all the schools that contributed a drawing about Google on the map of Australia. It is a great showcase for schools I suppose. Ours isn’t up there yet so I might get my students to enter a drawing.
