Keith and his dad need to drive across town to get to a museum in a new part of the city. They have never been to this new area, and they cannot find it on an old paper map they have.

Keith's dad suggests they go buy a new paper map. Keith points out that the new map might help them today, but like the map they already have, it will also be outdated in a few years.

Keith's dad then suggests they call the museum and ask for directions, Keith replies that turn-by-turn directions would be helpful, but sometimes the person giving the directions or the person writing them down makes mistakes. He also so says they need some kind of map of the new area in case they make a wrong turn.

Keith suggests that he and his dad use technology to design a better solution to their problem. To get accurate, up-to-date maps and turn by turn directions, they should use

• a hybrid vehicle in order to save gas

• a cell phone to call the museum

• a new paper map laminated with plastic

• an online mapping program or GPS navigation system
