In workshop format, this session will proceed in stages from explanation and demonstration to active audience participation in creative exercises. We will begin with a simple introduction to pre-made virtual tours, encouraging attendees to visit and explore the sites as I am discussing them. Then, using audience input, we will visit both natural sites and reconstructed monuments in Google Earth and demonstrate the basics of creating a simple virtual tour. Utilizing screenshots and screen capture software, we will create our own virtual tour integrating the resources above along with homemade video or still images. The virtual tour is completed by adding voiceover narration, captions and animations to the tour. We then conclude with a discussion of how audience members could use virtual tours in their own classes.
