CMaP – Summer 2016

CMaP – The Community Mapping summer workshop is designed to introduce educators to two exciting technologies, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Global Positioning Systems (GPS). Educators will not only be introduced to these technologies but also be given tools and resources for using them to enhance their curriculum.

This five-day summer workshop is for the educator who wants to increase community involvement in their classroom or student group. During the CMaP workshop, educators learn how to incorporate a community-based project into existing curriculum, beginning with the fundamentals of project-based learning, right through essential project design and management concepts and tools.

Workshops this year will be in Salt Lake, St. George, and Utah County. Watch this blog for more details soon!
