BatchGEO


View SU.ED Techies in a full screen map
BATCH-GEO of our Class

I added my address to the chart that was given to us in the assignment.  I copied the entire list and pasted into the GeoBatch page.  The map above is the result.  I found it very interesting that we have quite a diverse team; from Africa to England to  Arizona. After I uploaded the map, an email was sent to my SU address and I copied the link. I went to the blog and embedded it into the blog.

As I have written in other blogs, my special education class is studying The American Revolution.  I would use this to show the class where the money was coming from to finance the Revolution. I could use it as a summative quiz.  The students can add the addresses in the application after they learn what countries supported the Colonists and make another one to show what countries supported England.

In terms of SAMR, this application goes beyond the text book and maps and the children can add the locations themselves.  It is an interactive activity and visual for children who have issues with seeing "the big picture"
