Description: Photographs of the earth are an excellent medium to teach geography, to interest students in geography, and to provide linkages between geography and math/science. Satellite imagery of the earth is, also, an excellent tool for teaching geography. Since students relate much better to photography of their own area, this project begins with photography of Oklahoma and then expands that knowledge to the world. Therefore, the lessons and photos in this book are thematic and can be applied anywhere in the world. An introduction is given in basic cartography, and how to interpret topographic maps, urban and landform patterns from aerial photography, and satellite images, followed by a section on shuttle photography.

Description: Photographs of the earth are an excellent medium to teach geography, to interest students in geography, and to provide linkages between geography and math/science. Satellite imagery of the earth is, also, an excellent tool for teaching geography. Shuttle photography is a vastly unexplored resource for many educators, this resource is geared to help students use maps and images of all kinds in the classroom. The goal of this resource is to help students start analyzing and asking questions about what they are seeing, to help them see patterns in the photographs, and to develop a curiosity in them to want to know why these patterns exist.
