/ On : 11.27/ Thank you for visiting my small blog here. If you wanted to discuss or have the question around this article, please contact me e-mail at herdiansyah hamzah@yahoo.com.
What is the tool?
This tool is an online map that allows people to search places and see what other people have experienced, done, or even captured at these places. This tool will also allow people to add their own stories, experiences, and pictures to places that they have been. Not only does it serve as a way to share about your travels but also about your everyday life; where you live, work or eat.
How can it be used?
This tool can be used in many different ways. For me, as a teacher, I would use this tool to have my students research different places in the United States and even in the world. I can use this as a daily warm-up(looking at different places every morning) or even as a class project(assigning each student a different location).
What are the advantages and disadvantages of this tool?
The advantages of this tool is that it is a way for students to see and share real world experiences at different locations rather than learning about places through boring facts. It allows the students to see what other people have done while visiting places, what life is like to live in certain places, what there is to do around the world, etc. This tool can also be a way for students to complete projects by either looking up facts about certain places during battles or different time periods, or to add the information that they have researched about that information for others to see.
Some disadvantages about this tool is that some of the facts that people might put on this tool might not be correct and could steer my students in the wrong direction or mislead them in a way. Another disadvantage is that some of the content might be inappropriate for my students to gain access to.
Who is the audience for this tool?
The audience for this tool is anyone who is interested in learning and sharing about places around the world. In my specific field, the audience would be my students. In a way, as the teacher, I would also be considered the audience for the tool as well.

What is your opinion on the usefulness of this tool?
My opinion of this tool is that it can be useful in my classroom if it is used in the correct way. I see it as a great tool for my students to see the real world in a way and to be able to research others experiences, share their own experiences and still be able to find valuable information. In all, I feel that this is a tool that I could incorporate into my classroom.
