ESRI Community Atlas Project
- June 23, 2006Working together, students produce a community profile: an electronic project containing 10-20 static maps and documents totaling 1000-2500 words, which show important aspects of the community. This will require significant research. Students will need to explore the data and discover patterns and characteristics of their neighborhoods. They'll need to build their spatial and analytical skills.
They will also need to discuss the bounds of "the community," reach consensus on what it is like, and decide the best way to represent its nature within a modest space. Getting an entire class to agree on a vision of "the community" can be a challenge. But sharing expertise, communicating vision, and seeking agreement are essential skills in the world at large.
