Record a Tour Implications & Projects • Combines all “basic” Google Earth skills to create a polished product • Students record original dialog for their tour: • Process narrative • Evaluate/Justify decisions • Draw conclusions • Consequences • Present alternative options
Audience Interaction with Tours • Applied individually or sequentially, audience members can: • Answer questions on a study guide • Take notes to for later use during a follow-up discussion • Evaluate & discuss opinions, implications, and conclusions drawn by tour creators • Historical Staff Ride/Voyage/Air Raid: • Discuss alternative choices/options NOT applied by either side • Evaluate & discuss state of mind of either side • Evaluate & discuss results of mapped battles
Sample Tours Assessmen t
– Sample Tours – 1. Land Navigation – Logistical Supply route – Combat/Attack patterns 2. Where were they? – Historical staff ride – Biographical report 3. Humanitarian Missions
Land Navigation • Logistics Supply Route • Students create their own supply route • Find the shortest, most secure route • Placemarks at each “stopping” point, significant turn, or physical geographic landmark in the route • Measure & mark distances across different types of terrain • Recorded tour: • Analyze and rationalize each placemark, turningpoint, or when crossing difficult terrain • Add pictures (current if possible) and captions at the placemark locations
Land Navigation – continued • Logistics Supply Route • Map historic supply route • Placemarks at each “stopping” point or significant turn or physical geographic landmark in the route • Measure & mark distances across different types of terrain • Recorded tour: • Analyze and rationalize each placemark or turningpoint • 1 – why people at the time chose to make this decisions • 2 – agree/disagree with the decisions • 3 – if disagree, suggest & rationalize a different choice/route
Land Navigation • Plotting Combat & Attack Patterns ØAssign each student a day in a specific war Ø Students: Ø Plot locations of major and minor combat locations Ø Plot movements & direction of attacks (if applicable) Ø Attach pictures (current & historic) with captions Ø Record: Ø significant details of attacks & counter-attacks ØNumber of soldiers on either side ØSupplies, munitions, heavy equipment, etc. Ø Analyze & rationalize combat locations & decisions of officers in charge • 1 – why people at the time chose to make this decisions • 2 – agree/disagree with the decisions • 3 – if disagree, suggest & rationalize a different choice/route
Where were they? • Staff Ride (land, sea, or air) • Literary or Biography Tour • In tandem with a text or report • Students: • Placemark every significant location/event • Write the quote from the text as a caption • Add a picture (historic or current street/aerial view) • Add analysis of the location (dangers and perils, etc. ) • Factual based on history or text
Where were they? continued (Reading, Writing, & Speaking Activity) • Compare & Contrast: • See how it has changed • Assign each group a location to research within an extensive historical event (i. e. WWII, disaster, etc. ) • Find: newspaper clippings, old pictures, etc. • Attach photos or document summaries of the location before/after event • Add analysis of the positive/negative consequences • Factual based on history or text • Personal based on supported opinion
ALC - Book 32 Battle of Little Bighorn – Custer’s Staff Ride • Students use existing maps to create Google Earth Tours • Analyze, discuss, & draw conclusion about choices of major players in battle • Create alterative map to show improved decision making
ALC - Book Admiral Michelle J. Howard – Life Events • Students map major events & choices in her life • Students map historical events in the nation/world that parallel her life • Analyze, discuss, & draw conclusion about the impact of these national/global events/choices had on her life & vice versa
ALC - Book 25 USNS Mercy – Humanitarian Missions • Students map a new route for the hospital ship • Students analyze, discuss, draw conclusion & record: • Reason for order in route • a rationale for each stop on the route • what will be accomplished • Local benefits
