You might find some lessons of interest in my website: RealWorldMath.org. It has lessons and activities that use Google Earth. The content level is primarily for the middle grades but there are some interesting peripheral topics there, such as…

I think there is a confusion. I told you to contribute a book chapter in my edited book, and to see the proposal i asked you to visit my blog as the book proposal invitation has been posted there.
No problem, if you dont have a teaching experience, you can contribute a book chapter on the use of technology to facilitate education in contemporary age.To know the sub-themes again I would request you to visit my blog: http://tamishraswain.blogspot.com.
