After exploring Games, Simulations & Virtual Reality in class on 2/11/2008 and exploring GeoTechnologies (GPS, GIS, Google Earth & Maps, etc.) in class on 2/13/2008, followed by an indepth look at a specfic application that could relate to your content area and level, reflect specificially on how you might use an emerging technology in your future classroom.
In class i explored the computer games and the Geo Technologies. I liked playing around with the geo technologies better because it was facinating to look up all the information it provided. it showed where houses and businesses are located within a click of a button. The Google Earth was the best because you could put a destination in and it would show you exactly where it was and show pictures and even tell facts about the place. In the future when i teach my class i will definatly use the Google Earth because if we want to see where some city or country is we can show the students visually where it is and show pictures and facts about it.
