SUMMARY:Map your World: Empowering Students with OpenStreetMap
DESCRIPTION:Summary\nOpenStreetMap is the world’s largest crowdsourced geospatial database\, powering thousands of applications across corporate\, government\, nonprofit\, and academic sectors. As a free and community-driven project\, anyone can contribute and anyone can use the data. As a tool for teaching geography\, OpenStreetMap (OSM) is unparalleled. Mapping\, as a classroom activity\, fosters spatial awareness and locational intelligence; open mapping helps students become active engaged citizens where they help others in their community and around the world. \nTeachOSM (A program of OpenStreetMap US) is an open resource hub and community network for students and educators to develop geospatial skills and increase civic engagement through project-based learning via OpenStreetMap. Through monthly Working Group meetings and asynchronous collaboration\, TeachOSM members maintain a central repository of learning materials & resources designed for educators\, facilitate a community of practice by networking educators and hosting mentors\, and maintain or advocate for tools that improve the ability for educators to integrate OpenStreetMap into their classrooms and curriculum. Learn about the work of TeachOSM\, the OpenStreetMap project\, and see case studies of how OSM has been utilized in the classroom. \nSession Focus \nAll Grade Levels | Geospatial Technology | Open Data \nConference Room\nCullen \nMeet the Presenters\nAlyssa Castronuovo is the Program Coordinator at OpenStreetMap US\, a national nonprofit dedicated to supporting OpenStreetMap and its community of mappers. In her role she supports the TeachOSM program\, which connects educators interested in implementing OSM in their classrooms to educational materials\, shared resources\, and the wider OSM community. She loves exploring the beautifully mapped bike and pedestrian infrastructure in her home of Richmond\, Virginia.
