Scientists use GIS technology as a tool for organizing, visualizing, and analyzing scientific data. This real-world data provides new insights into the traditional concepts taught in the Earth Science classroom, and motivates students to "discover" key scientific concepts. The investigations are written by scientists and educators in an engaging style, and have been extensively tested, and are in use in classrooms across the country. These investigations do not require teachers or students to have previous experience with GIS software. The extensive data sets offer many opportunities for students' independent, open-ended exploration - to experience the thrill of working like real scientists.媒体推荐The strongest feature of these guides are the databases creates for analysis. There are some excellent data here, and it is well organized into ArcView files.
The data sets are very rich and well done. The strong connection between science and humanity is important for university students to appreciate--and is clear in these materials
