Community reviews for Google Earth

Google Earth is a great tool to use to help students explore the globe without leaving the classroom.

I really enjoy using this app in my classroom to take my kids on mini trips from our location to different places in the world. The function to travel from location to location is great for the kids to see how far different location are from one another. The built-in saving function is great so that we can continually revisit place all through the school year.

Great for geography lessons!

Google Earth can be used in so many ways across so many grades!

Interactive app to show take students around the world without leaving the classroom.

Google Maps is just an easter egg full of fun things to see. As a language teacher we would love to be able to travel the world but that isn't always a possible because of the finances involved. Google Earth lets you travel for free! The students enjoy playing on the computers too--the only bad part is our school has slow internet!

A powerful tool for applying geographic concepts.

When students want to know about a place on earth, they can use Google Earth to virtually travel there and get a sense of what it is like through the satellite images, photos, and information.

Google Earth, once loaded on your computer, is a great way for students to see the Earth and the Universe. Not only can they learn about the themes of geography, but it is a way for them to see parts of the World they might never see- virtually.

It is so difficult to explain the world with words or a flat picture. This is a interactive way to share the world- it also can be viewed as a tool across the curriculum.
