Google Earth

If I were teaching a foreign language class I think it would be a good idea for all the students in my class to download google earth at home or use resources at school. Then, I would assign all my students to browse around on Google Earth, look up France, and check out some up the towns and street signs when it is on street view. Then I would have every student pick one town in France that they really liked and have them research it and try to find pictures of where they would want to eat, shop, site see and ext. Then I would have them all make a PowerPoint and show the class a presentation.
