What do you think GIS is?

What is GIS? A geographic information system (GIS) is a computer-based system for capturing, mapping, manipulating, analyzing and visualizing geographically referenced information. Layers of information about a place ( (from: GIS,

What is GIS? (continued) Linking a database to the map (from: GIS,

What is GIS? (continued) Components Location, Data, Hardware, Software, People, Information (from: GIS,

What is GIS (continued) GIS in Everyday Life es/everyday.html es/everyday.html

(from: ESRI Schools & Libraries, GIS - A Thinker's Tool) Do you want your students to: engage in activities that improve critical thinking and problem solving skills? integrate knowledge from multiple subjects? build a rich grasp of global topics? work on community-based investigations? use the same advanced technology employed by business and government? be ready to step into the information rich society?

Case Studies & Lesson Plans EdPARC ArcLessons 12/arclessons/arclessons.cfm Food insecurity and vulnerability information and mapping systems (FIVIMS) Your task: Find a lesson plan related to your subject and explain it to the class.

With GIS, students should: take an active role work with an authentic problem analyze how one factor relates to other conditions of a given place apply similar features in other places synthesize their findings evaluate or predict a problem

With GIS, teachers should: ask to add new data give an authentic problem ask “what if” give a scenario have students interpret the mapping information they displayed provide an assessment tool for their project

Critical questions to carry a GIS project What should be answered (determined)? What types of data must be collected? How are the data collected? How are the data visualized? How are the data used to make decisions?

Your task: a GIS lesson plan As a group, develop a GIS lesson plan related with your subject matters Plan to develop a series of maps Scratch a series of maps on the file I gave to you Let’s talk about your lesson plan and its instructional values

Limitations Not easy to learn the GIS software Budget for the hardware and software Curriculum integration: teachers’ collaboration
