Explore Earth (Google Earth)’s new creation tools allow teachers and students to design and share interactive stories and discoveries about the world. These projects can be viewed on any device, including phones, tablets, and laptops. Additionally, users can collaborate with others by inviting them to join projects. Users can build, collaborate on, and share digital stories mapped across the globe. Using placemarks, lines, and shapes as core storytelling elements users can bring projects to life.  Explore Google Earth’s Voyager or Lit(erature) Trips to view ready-made creations such as the locations surrounding the events documented in Anne Frank's diary, or the flight of golden eagles across north American landscapes, or  follow the perilous journey of an escaped slave in 1849.
