Save the date! Announcing Geo Teachers Institutes for Ireland and England
April 16, 2012
Educators all over the world have used Google's geo products to help students conceptualize, visualize, share and communicate information about the world around them.
This summer, we will host two
Google Geo Teachers Institutes
: June 13 and 14, 2012 in Dublin, Ireland and June 20 and 21, 2012 in London, England. Both events will be held at the local Google office.
This two-day event is a free professional development experience designed to help educators get the most from Google's geography-related products and technologies. Participants receive hands-on experience and learn best practices and tips for using
Google Earth
,
Google Maps
, and
Google SketchUp
, including a focus on features like
Ocean
,
Mars
,
Moon
and
Sky
in Google Earth.
Attendees will also learn about innovative instructional strategies, theoretical foundations, and receive resources to share with colleagues. Speakers will share real life examples of how they are using these tools in their classrooms across all subjects. We hope this event will empower educators to bring the world's geographic information to students in a compelling, fresh, and fun way.
