    Notes on slide 1

    RSS
    (most commonly translated as "Really Simple Syndication" but sometimes "Rich Site Summary") is a family of

    web feed

    formats used to publish frequently updated works—such as

    blog

    entries, news headlines, audio, and video—in a standardized format.
    [2]







    The term "
    Web 2.0
    " (in spoken

    English

    , "Web two point oh") is commonly associated with web applications which facilitate interactive

    information sharing

    ,

    interoperability

    ,

    user-centered design

    [1]
    and

    collaboration

    on the

    World Wide Web

    . Examples of Web 2.0 include web-based communities,

    hosted services

    ,

    web applications

    ,

    social-networking sites

    ,

    video-sharing sites

    ,

    wikis

    ,

    blogs

    ,

    mashups

    and

    folksonomies

    . A Web 2.0 site allows its users to interact with other users or to change website

    content

    , in contrast to non-interactive websites where users are limited to the passive viewing of information that is provided to them.

    1. Incorporating Google Earth and Web 2.0 Apps in Geoscience Classes Dr. Lindley S. Hanson Dept. Geological Sciences Salem State College
    2. WHAT IS WEB 2.0? usgs The Cloud • everyone contributes • platform independent • users can collaborate • control not required
    3. Web 2.0 Resources • Google Earth - Imagery • Mapfinder - source for USGS 1:24:000 topo maps • Google Docs or Zoho - collaborative online writing, spreadsheet, and presention • Google Maps - Browser enabled • Bubble Us - Mind Mapping / Flow Charting • Diigo - Bookmarking • Quizlet - Flash Cards and Test • Useful Utilities
    4. Google Earth
    5. Previous Challenges Facilities/Resources • Limited collection of maps and air photography • Limited resources to keep collections updated • No storage space or time to organize • Students are required to buy laptops -- but most classroom use typically restricted to word processing or don’t allow students to use them
    6. Goals • To visualize landscapes using imagery and topographic maps • informative tours • map overlays • quick sketches and cross-sections • To measure useful landscape parameters and observe and quantify change • drainage area, perimeter, sinuosity ratio, drainage density, elongation ratio, rates of erosion, etc. • To develop computer skills for upper level courses • To foster curiosity and exploration
    7. View Landscape from the air Google Earth ...and from the ground
    8. Mapfinder for Google Earth Topographic Overlays 1.Download 2. Overlay 3. Adjust 4. Save mapfinder for Google Earth online
    9. Kmz/Klm files use handles to place image on on a server adjust overlay save as kmz or klm file
    10. Creating Exercises with Google Earth 1. Build exercise 2. Save as kml/ kmz as
    11. Visualization Introduce the topic with an annotated geotour
    12. Use Google Earth instead of PPT post the file to your students
    13. Visualization exercises Students sketch topography And then construct a along profiles drawn on profile from an overlay Google Earth
    14. Measurements and Overlays measuring tool adjust transparency
    15. Constructing X-Sections
    16. Observing Change
    17. Observing Change
    18. Measuring Change
    19. Measuring Change
    20. Web 2.0 Office + Apps • Google.com (docs, spreadsheet, presentation • Zoho (writer, spreadsheet, presentation) Google Docs in plain English
    21. Advantages Free Do not require hard drive space Accessable from any computer on any platform Uniform interface Enable collaboration Exportable and Publishable NO MORE “I lost my paper when my computer crashed” or “we couldn’t find a common time to meet.”
    22. Google Docs - Shared projects
    23. Google Docs - Shared projects
    24. Zoho - shared projects
    25. Google Maps
    26. embedding information
    27. Wow! I’m there!
    28. embedding maps on websites
    29. Mind mapping
    30. Mineral ID
    31. Bookmarking & Sharing
    32. Key words and descriptions
    33. Highlighting
    34. Quizlet create flashcard sets and quizzes Video Tour
    35. Quizlet Create, print and share quizzes
    36. Free Utilites and Services • Adrive.com 50Gb free storage space • Transferbigfiles.com • Authorstream.com or SlideShare.com upload powerpoints • Doodle.com scheduling appointments • Surveymonkey.com great for creating class surveys • Skype.com video and voice communication • incompetect.com/graphpaper/ Create your own graph paper
