Abstract
Even as the resources for teaching and learning geography have become increasingly more sophisticated and user-friendly, geography has a decreasing role in general education K-12 and post-secondary courses despite school mission statements that emphasize cross-cultural awareness, global mindedness, engaging in the world, or solving the world’s problems. This presentation explores the value and application of digital geography tools (e.g. Google Earth, Google Maps, and Google Trends) in world literature or foreign language literature courses
