GIS engages students and promotes critical thinking, integrated learning and analysis, and multiple intelligences and sciences at any grade level.
GIS is computer software that links geographic information (where things are) with descriptive information (what things are like). A GIS does more than tell you "where”; it can also answer questions like "why" and "what if?" With GIS, you can visualize patterns in data and analyze relationships and trends. GIS technology is a powerful, interactive tool that helps develop computer literacy, analytical approaches to problem solving, spatial reasoning, and communication and presentation skills. Educating learners of all ages about GIS is essential for fostering citizenship and sustaining our world. |
