For this activity I chose to do option 2:
Come up with an idea for a lesson in which your students would create their own maps.
I have a couple of ideas that came to my mind for an idea for a lesson Where students Create maps.
Idea 1: Renewable Projects in the State of Michigan (Engineering)
Idea 2: House Style/Architecture of city or State (Architecture)
For both projects it would reinforce content already taught. Students would use Google maps to locate renewable energy projects in the state/House styles in our town. Students could take there own pictures and geotag them in Picasa and add them to their map. The could also add a video taken from there phone and upload it to YouTube and add it to their map. I have in the past used Google Earth where students go on a guided architecture tour of the world so I think it would be cool to have them design their own architectural/renewable energy tour!
I will post a map ASAP!
