I am amazed by the many capabilities of Google Earth. This is a great interdisciplinary tool that can be incorporated across the curriculum into a variety of subjects including math, social studies, science, and foreign language. Moreover, it is 100% free to download and use!The Google Earth site includes great tutorials for getting started from the very basic to the more advanced. Not only is there Google Earth, but also Google Oceans and Google Sky! Through Google Earth's Gallery, you can search for tours created by others users on anything from world population density to a 3D tour of major league baseball stadiums.
