No time to write a full blog post, so I've ported over just the tweets from yesterday's excellent discussions.

@Trevesy I really like Prezi as slideware, gr8 for adding ref links to talks but I don't like the rotated text feature - no purpose #GEPenrose

@terraunbound Using Prezi is like being flown around on a google earth tour... how's it feel?#GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 22:15:38
@meg_stewart Ooo, this is my first experience of a live Prezi presentation. #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 22:09:51
@meg_stewart Ryan: We need to keep these conversations going (develop a community of practice). Tools shouldnt be developed in isolation. #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 22:04:37
@meg_stewart Jeff Ryan: Do students really learn with technology and informatics tools and resources? We need authentic assessment #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 22:03:34
@meg_stewart Jeff Ryan: Private sector tools and data systems are becoming the "standards" for geo-information access. That’s GE and ArcGIS #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 20:17:15
@meg_stewart Speaker: Because integration of Google Earth in classrooms is fairly new, more research should be done on learning outcomes. #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 20:16:11
@terraunbound I like this: "A well written learning objective is a contract between you and the student" #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 20:11:44
@meg_stewart Talk now is about use of Google Earth & assessment. Lecturer uses the Carlton resource of structural geol http://goo.gl/BNpHO #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 20:01:47
@meg_stewart Comment about use of Google Earth in early edu so that by the time students get to college, they can use more advanced features. #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 19:59:56
@meg_stewart Hearing about use of GE to teach middle schoolers geographic literacy & geol and geog skills. http://www.spatialsci.org/ #GEPenrose

@Trevesy Sean Askey on spreadsheet mapper bit.ly/gmup1O Good if u have a table with lat longs and want to put data in rich pop up balloons #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 19:27:50
@meg_stewart Have a lot of points w/photos to bring into GE? Use Spreadsheet Mappr.http://earth.google.com/outreach/tutorial_spreadsheet.html #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 19:20:54
@pffli To get lat lon GPS data from placemarks in Google Earth, save them as a .kml file, rename the extension to .xml, import to Excel. #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 19:14:37
@Trevesy It was a techy discussion so I didn't understand it but Google were there #GEPenrose

 @AVMaltese @meg_stewart ABSOLUTELY!! We spent lots o time last spring looking thru all sorts of Fed & State sites 4 layers that work well. #GEPenrose 


2011-01-07 19:12:34
Re poles problem; at a conference that one of the digitial globes (not one of the main ones) had it fixed 4 years ago (cont) #GEPenrose / @Trevesy

2011-01-07 20:42:07
@meg_stewart @AVMaltese Good to know. Sounds like you know how to find your layers for teaching. Would it be easier to have them in 1 place? #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 19:06:23
@pffli The poles have always been a problem in Google Earth - this is a deep level issue in coding that is a long way from being solved. #GEPenrose

@AVMaltese @meg_stewart Haven't used TOC (Tab of Contents?) or the Showcase much - the layers I use R from agencies (i.e., USGS, EPA, etc.) #GEPenrose

@Trevesy @AVMaltese @meg_stewart re: alternative to layers is to put it in the Google Earth showcase #GEPenrose 

2011-01-07 18:46:52
Do you use Google Earth to teach with? and do you use Layers? Just wondering.#GEPenrose / @meg_stewart

2011-01-07 20:24:20
@meg_stewart Dave Mogk: One reason to use GE in the classroom - allows for observation of the unobservable. #GEPenrose

@meg_stewart Janice Gobert on using visualizations for teaching concepts, esp. geological, presents all information at once. #GEPenrose
