Virtual Reality??
When you think "virtual reality", you may not necessarily think of Google Earth or Bing Maps. However, both are immersive 3D environments that let you explore the globe (and even the heavens) in ways that have never been possible before. In one hour, you can take students on a virtual field trip from your school to the Gobi Desert to the Eiffel Tower and back again, simulate a deep-sea dive to the Mariana Trench, or take a tour of Ancient Rome. And that's just ONE class period!
