Francine Stock of the Tulane School of Architecture has been doing a lot of work on using tools such as Flickr, MapBuilder, EditGrid and others to create mashups: http://www.regional-modernism.com/2008/04/on-road-online.html I'll also recommend my O'Reilly shortcut <a href="http://oreilly.com/catalog/neogeography" rel="nofollow">"Introduction to Neogeography"</a> that talks about projects such as GeoGenealogy and Trip Mapping that would be useful for education. Other useful tools that are coming up include <a href="http://concharto.com/" rel="nofollow">Concharto </a> that maps historic events, and also more news agencies are adding GeoRSS to their feeds so students could map and visualize news by locations. Thanks for the links to <a href="http://mapufacture.com" rel="nofollow">Mapufacture</a>. You should also look at <a href="http://georss.org/geopress" rel="nofollow">GeoPress</a> for easily adding GeoRSS to a WordPress or MovableType blog.
