Greatest Map EVER

This map shows a few of the many places we have been.

MyMaps at MapBuilder.net


Uses for google maps:

Water Runoff, studying erosion
Proving the world is round
Continental Drift theory visualization
Oil fields in Iraq
Pyramids
Habitats (Rainforest, Desert, etc.)
Location of Forests, Parks, etc.

These are just a few of the science related uses for Google maps.

Reflection #3

I like the idea of using a blog however I do not have very much expereince using eportfolio or blogs. This is my first account and experience using a blogs and I am excited to learn more about them. So far it seems really neat how you can post U-tube and links, I really like that part. Blogs seem like they will do a really good job of keeping people informed and provide people with new ideas and links for our teaching experience.

One thing I may not like about using the blog is that sometimes when too many people post a couple different blogs at a time the blogs build up and I find that it may be hard to follow, or they may build up way to much to even have the time to read. Another thing that I am worried about is organization of the blog. All in all I need to learn a lot more of the features of this blog so that I can post ideas and comments more easily and confidently.

As for eportfolio I feel that it is a little to complicated. This was my first time using it and I just thought it had to much going on. I am sure if I spent some time using it I will become more comfortable but finding the time to get to know this program that well will be hard, however I am sure will be very beneficial.
