Creation Tools

Google Earth has introduced creation tools, which allow YOU to tell the stories you care about. Creation tools allow you (or your students!) to be the storyteller By adding points, using Street View imagery, importing media, and customizing text, you can create dynamic and engaging stories from anywhere. Just like a Google Doc or Slide, users can invite others to collaborate and co-author projects together.
