Google Maps is a extremely useful part of google. Google maps will show you directions to any place in the world. You can zoom in as far to see the street names and you can zoom out as far as, to see the whole world. It's great for traveling or planning trips. It will also tell you an estimated time of how long it will take to get there. Google maps would be useful in the classroom, expecially for a geography class. Students can study countrys, states, countys, and even roads. It is great for students to learn there way around there hometown.
I also think it would be a cool project to have the students study google map and have them draw a route of a place they would like to travel. They would also have to figure out how long it would take to get there and what they need to take with them to be prepard.
