Virtual Tour Completed

Here is the final virtual tour that I have uploaded to my website: Pacific Islands.

And here is the embedded version:


This tour explores the different cultures throughout the Pacific Ocean.

I watched and commented on these three blogs:

Virtual tours are such a great idea for using in the classroom because they help you as a teacher give students the opportunity to "travel." It allows students to learn about cultures, history, and many, many other things. I think the downsides of it might include the students getting off task just playing around with the different tools or trying to look up familiar places to them that don't have to do with the lesson. But other than that, I think it's a great tool to use!!
