You can simulate the rotation of the earth by moving the Globe from left (west) to right (east). You can use the mouse to increase the zoom to see a place in more detail. You can move the Atlas to see India and increase the zoom to see the cities and towns in Telangana. Pick up any country of your choice. Try to move the Atlas to locate that region (though you will not see the country name, you can locate the cities and towns, rivers and mountains of that region).

Explore maths with Geogebra level 3 The globe on your table with Marble Playing with the globe

Using Marble to learn physical geography
Marble is a digital atlas. It provides the physical geography of the Earth, while KGeography provides the political geography (with political borders dividing the continents into countries etc) of the Earth.

Objectives

  1. Understanding how the interactive environment of Marble, works as a digital atlas
  2. Playing with the features to explore and learn

Digital skills

  1. Navigating an educational software application
  2. Exploring a digital atlas (globe), drilling down and up locations on the map, identifying locations on the map

Your learning outputs

  1. Screenshots of maps you have worked on

Activities

  1. Playing with the globe
  2. Precipitation (rainfall), weather and climate
  3. Local weather and climate patterns
