The Interfolio Blog: Professors Use Google Earth to Teach Literature
-
"The goal of this exercise,
and of the class as a whole, was to show that literature can act as a
kind of map and has a profound effect on the ways in which a culture
imagines its place in the known world, " Boes writes. " A secondary
goal of the Lit Trip assignment was to raise student awareness of
intellectual copyright issues; all quotations required proper citation
and all images had to be either in the public domain or had to undergo
prior copyright clearance."
