SUMMARY:Beyond “Place Matters”: Making Spatial Analysis Accessible with Dashboard-Driven Geography
DESCRIPTION:Summary\nWhile educators widely agree that “place matters\,” integrating spatial thinking into social science\, public health\, and policy classrooms often stalls due to the technical barriers and learning curves of full-scale GIS software. This webinar explores how dashboard-driven geography (utilizing tools like Tableau) can lower these hurdles without sacrificing analytical depth or conceptual rigor. Join us to learn how gateway tools help students move beyond static mapping\, quickly explore spatial patterns\, and build essential visual literacy – fostering geographic intuition and data-driven decision-making across disciplines. \nAudience Focus\nHigh School\, APHG\, Higher Education \nAbout the Presenters\nStephen Borders is a Professor of Public Health at Coastal Carolina University. His work focuses on using GIS and data visualization to tackle real-world issues related to public health\, food insecurity\, and healthcare access. He partners with nonprofit organizations\, food banks\, and healthcare systems to turn complex data into actionable insights. Stephen is passionate about applied learning and community-engaged research that creates meaningful\, measurable impact. \nWebinar Access\n#open access | Join Webinar Here \nNot yet a member?  More info and Join today!
