Abstract
Session participants will get hands on experience with a number
of geospatial platforms that will allow them to incorporate
geographic based inquiry into any classroom. Good for any skill
level, this session will introduce participants to a number of
learning technologies like ArcGIS Online, Esri's geoinquiries, and
more!

Objectives• Give participants an idea of what GIS is and the uses and applications
of GIS for K-12 classes.
• Have participants practice using GIS pre-made maps, and become familiar with how to use data to make maps of their own.
• Provide resources and information on how participants can incorporate GIS into their own classrooms, schools, or districts.
Activities• Participants will engage in a Geoinquery of their own using ArcGIS

Explaining GIS
• GIS uses computer programs to collect, store, analyze, and share geographic data
• Geospatial Technologies allow users to view relationships and identify patterns more easily with different layers

• Developed around framework of asking a geographic question, collecting and organizing data, then deciding a course of action
• Become a National Geographic Certified Educator
