The ups and downs of digital tours

I really like the fact that digital tours give students a lot of freedom to explore by themselves. Many times, when a teacher chooses all of the specific things students are to look, students can get board and not pay attention to the lesson. By being able to choose what they think is interesting, students will be more interested in the tour and will pay better attention. Unfortunately, the disadvantage I see with the digital tour is that it does take a lot of time to make. Going through and selecting all the places and what to look at while there takes a lot more time then just finding pictures on the internet to put on a PowerPoint. Therefor, because PowerPoint is easier, I think teachers will more likely do the PowerPoint presentation.

Also, I looked at the digital tours of Kaylie, Melissa, and Lisa.
