The My Maps Editor app allows you to create a map just like drawing. You can create different kinds of maps, from a simple meeting spot map to the route of a world trip. If you have Google Account, you can edit Google My Maps and Google Fusion Tables with this app.

Not only can you create your own maps, you can compare them with others. You can search on the map to look for stores or buildings nearby you. You can save information of spots you’re interested in directly on the map as well.

For the full capabilities of this nifty app, you can check out their tutorials here.

We live in a society addicted to technology. More smartphones are being used in the classroom and in our offices every day. To help you leverage the technology available to you, we explore, try and share links to apps that can help you and your students. 

Every week we select a new app and share its description in our “Apps We Love” column. We do not endorse devices from any one company or receive any kind of compensation for these features. We just share links to apps that can help you teach, learn, work and grow.
