Santa signs up for Google Earth training with Glow Meet
December 8th, 2008I was chatting to Santa in the Google Earth community recently about how he plots the best routes around the globe for delivering presents. I was also looking for tips on which is the best GPS to buy for my visits to Local Authorities around Scotland. He is a GPS wizard and big fan of Google Earth. He takes a professional interest in what is happening around the world, but he was saying he could benefit from a GE refresher course, so we have given him a Glow guest account. If you are like Santa and need more GE training, dont forget to join our free CPD event on January 19th in Glow Meet, in the Social Studies National Glow Group.
This training is being offered in Glow Meet by the Glow team and Jamie Buchanan-Dunlop, from the classroom on floor seven in the Optima building. We have been preparing and rehearsing with Glow Meet to ensure that this meet is as good as it can be for all those teachers who are able to drop in on the 19th of January. Stuart Oliphant and Mark Haggart are providing their technical expertise to make this a better experience and to capture the presentations and discussions for the Social Studies National Glow Group. We intend to use application sharing in Glow Meet and a variety of technology in support of this training.
Take a look at my previous post to find out how to join the session. Get the most from this training by downloading information and the basic or advanced GE guides from the SSNGG. Also try the GE Blog. You can pop in at any time during the day on the 19th of January to ask questions but I hope this training is just the start of a wider discussion about: using GE for teaching and learning, outdoor learning and how to use Glow Meet to best effect in the National Glow Groups.
