Teaching high-school geomorphological concepts and topographic map reading entails many challenges. This research reports the applicability and effectiveness of Google Earth in teaching topographic map skills and geomorphology concepts, by a single teacher, in a one-computer classroom. Compared to learning via conventional instructional methods, students learning with Google Earth do not develop differing geomorphology concepts because both settings enable students to learn with similar static representation. However, students learning with Google Earth improve topographic map skills significantly compared to conventional instructional methods. This is because of the 3D landscape visualization and prior knowledge connections available with Google Earth.
