While Google Maps helps us navigate from place to place, Google My Maps unlocks unlimited potential for dynamic, interactive learning experiences that transport students anywhere--whether they're learning about ancient civilizations, modern scientific discoveries, mathematical patterns in architecture, or historical events that shaped our world. In this session, you'll discover how location-based storytelling can revolutionize instruction in any subject and grade level. You'll learn practical strategies for empowering students to guide their own explorations, tell compelling location-based stories, visualize complex data, and demonstrate deep learning through interactive digital maps. As a result of this session, teachers will: 1. Create a functional Google My Maps project with multimedia elements that's aligned to curriculum standards. 2. Identify cross-curricular applications of location-based learning for enhanced student engagement. 3. Plan student-centered My Maps activities that promote collaboration and authentic assessment. This session is appropriate for teachers at all technology levels.
