Old Maps Online

I'm always a fan of a great edtech tool--especially at the start of the school year, and especially when it is a tool you can use multiple times throughout the year. 

Richard Byrne, formerly of Free Technology for Teachers (he sold it to Teachermade when he traded his teacher hat for that of law student last fall) created this video on A Cool Historical Maps and Timeline Combination. In it, he describes how Old Maps Online works. 

This website could be the perfect pairing for tons of social studies and history units ahead this year! One of my favorite parts is the ability to zoom in and out, anywhere in the world over a multitude of times in history! Great way to find the pairing of space and place.
