World Wind in another School

Guest_Jim_* · 11-30-2006, 09:26 PM

The original World Wind in another classroom was getting kind of long and this title will hopefully be more accurate.
So today I had an appointment to see the principal of my school to talk about World Wind and what the next step is in demonstrating it. This meeting went very well. The plan we came up with is to have two demonstrations on January 12 and a follow up on January 19. The reason for two on the twelfth is we want to show both the science teachers and social studies teachers. The nineteenth though wouldn't actually be a demonstration, students have of that day but teachers still come in to get some work done, what I would be doing then is have more of a question and answer session for any teacher that has them. Also the demonstration for the twelfth we're going to try to have a very nice presentation room we have at the school that would be perfectly suited for World Wind.
This plan may very well change by then, but with luck it won't.

Here are two pdf's I put together as invitations to the demonstration on Friday. I hope you like them.
WW PDF Sci.pdf (~11Mb)
WW PDF His.pdf (~5.1M
By the way, I had to have my brother put these up on his webspace because I can't access my space on Twobeds and the forum wouldn't let me put them up either. Any ideas why niether of them would work?

PS. The images on the first pages are shortcuts to the pages to deal more with that particular picture shows, just so you know.

Nice summaries.

Twobeds has been gone for a while and the files are probably too big for forum attachments. I think 2bn.net is the current WW hosting/upload site, but it seems to be temporarily offline. Apparently it's not a good day for WW-related network connectivity.

If your brother wants them off his webspace then let me know and I can host them somewhere.

2bn is working for me now, anyway.

It look fantastic!
Good variety of images. I do not think you need to specify which image sets are not in the original install.

I made a powerpoint for introducing the program to some other teachers at my school last year. The power point is at

You can use any of the stuff if it is usefull

Will 1.4 be out by this Friday? I'm asking because I'm presenting then and would like to show that rather than 1.3.5. I could be 1.4 RC3 on the computer to demonstrate but it just wouldn't seem right to me to do that but still have 1.3.5 on any disks for the teachers to have.
