Tech Integration RFSD - Helping teachers integrate technology to enhance learningBetsy McMichael, Katelyn Foster, Dave Plumb and Kristen Gracy, the 4th Grade Team at Crystal River Elementary School, are using GIS (Geographic Information Systems) to engage students in exploring Colorado history, geography, and culture, as well as energy resources, with interactive online maps.
GIS is the industry-standard software for professionals in many fields, but it is now accessible on student Chromebooks via GeoInquiries and StoryMaps.
Interested? They have a free institutional account that you and your students can use to explore, analyze, and even create layered maps on any topic. Email Ben to get started.
