Version 1.0 (October 2006) and Version 1.0 (October 2006) and Version 2.0 (March, 2007) Version 2.0 (March, 2007) Difference between 1.0 and 2.0 Version 1.0 included Geofusion for 3D virtual Globe exercises (but the Plug-In is incompatible with Mac OS). Replaced by Google Map Exercise in Version 2.0. Version 1.0 used Google Earth 3.0. Version 2.0 upgrade to Google Earth 4.0 with new Sketch-up functions and new user interfaces. Version 1.0 instructions have both answer sheets and instructions in a single document (Documents are too long). Version 2.0 separated answer sheets from the exercise instruction. (Easier for teacher to use and print-out). Version 2.0 corrected errors and mistakes founded in version 1.0. Version 2.0 add components for getting students’ feedback about the learning modules.
