World Tour 2011
//You are about to embark on an experience of a lifetime – a tour of the world without leaving your seat! //  **Individuals, pairs, and groups of three** are going to select three countries from three different regions of the world. Using Google Earth, you will fly to these three places of interest and tour (look around) using its 3-dimensional features. You will rank your three choices from 1 to 3. (3=GOOD, 2=BETTER, and 1=THE BEST). Use pp. 70 & 71 in your Academic Journal to take notes on the three countries and the sites you see. Look for things that you consider to be interesting and/or significant.

==__Tomorrow and Monday__, you are going to have to give an account of your trip. In your 2-5 minute presentation, you will name the places you visited in order from GOOD to THE BEST, explain your reason for ranking each country how you did, then show the class what makes your #1 choice Number 1 using whatever presentation tool with which you feel most comfortable (i.e. Google Earth, PowerPoint, Google Maps, WikiSpaces, etc.) ==

==The rubric for this brief task can be found in the list to the left. Please read it and complete the assignment according to this guide. ==

This is the only day you will have in the lab. Use it **WISELY**!! The rest will have to be completed at home tonight.
