Bridgewater State is home to the Massachusetts Geographic Alliance and home to Project Earthview (I've never been so jealous of a globe before).  This inflatable, hand-painted globe in a fantastic teaching resource.  You can even enter the globe with a group under 20 and explore the Eart from the inside out.  The link is to the Earthview blog, with provides information of the project to take this globe to local schools, and other geographic resources.
