Scoop.it!
Tony Hall's insight:
I recently talked my school into getting a licence for Stratalogica. When I came across it I thought it was awesome. Especially the "dual globe view", which is awesome for comparing population density with climate or growing season, for example. I wonder if anyone else is using it and would mind sharing their experiences - good and bad.

I think I've shared stuff from these guys before. This is really cool. Great for IB Geography Hazards.

This is really very good. For people familair with Stratalogica, this is an excellent FREE alternative. I am looking forward to seeing what my guys can do with it!
Scoop.it!
Tell your stories with photos, videos and rich text on Google Earth.
Tony Hall's insight:
This is something new from Google. It is in beta testing at the moment. I think it is pretty cool and dead simple to use. If you are familiar with myHistro you probably find this a little more user friendly.
I use an app called Ghostery to block website tracking. It is very interesting that I was unable to upload photos until I stopped blocking Google Analytics and Google +1.
Never the less, a user friendly teaching tool.

Really user freindly app from Google. Very useful in the classroom. |
This is really interesting. You can zoom through time and look at how the Earth has changed in terms of ice sheets, sea levels, temperature and more. There's also an iPad app.
