GI Pedagogy publication is now available to view

on

Just over a year, I started working on an ERASMUS funded project with a number of partners which I have worked with before on a new project called GI Pedagogy. 

The aim of the project is to develop a model for teaching with GIS which involves cognitive science.

This first project output consists of a review, analysis and evaluation of existing, prevailing teaching practices that incorporate GIS in schools and an exploration of evidence related to alternative, innovative, pedagogical approaches to teaching with GIS.

As a result of the review and analysis of findings, a series of recommendations are provided to inform the development of the teacher professional development course and toolkit of innovative pedagogical approaches to teaching with GIS and connect to the case studies of outcomes.

Content of this report:
1. The GI Pedagogy project
2. Introduction
3. Digital Competences
4. Teaching with GIS
5. Approaches to teaching with GIS
6. Pedagogies
7. Training teachers for GIS
8. Conclusions

There are more outcomes to come in 2021. I am working on a toolkit for teachers which will include our final model.

While we are on the subject of GIS, it's great news to hear that David Morgan is joining the ESRI UK team. Looking forward to seeing what he produces, and getting involved in some way.
