SUMMARY:GeoCircle: Spatial Thinking IRL - Taking Your Geography Students Outside
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nAs spring continues and summer approaches\, let’s get the students outside. Join us for a casual discussion about how to teach spatial thinking out in the field (outside) with your students. There are so many opportunities for hands-on\, active learning. Whether you are a primary\, middle or high school teachers there are activities for everyone! Come with ideas and questions. \nThe Facilitator\nJoseph Kerski is a geographer with a focus on the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in education. He has served as the President of the National Council for Geographic Education and has given 2 TED Talks on “The Whys of Where”. He holds 3 degrees in geography (BA\, MA\, PhD) and has served as geographer in 4 major sectors of society\, including government (NOAA\, US Census Bureau\, USGS)\, academia (University of Minnesota\, Harrisburg Area Community College\, Penn State University\, Sinte Gleska University\, University of Denver\, others)\, private industry (as Education Manager for Esri)\, and nonprofit organizations (with roles in geography and education associations). Joseph has authored over 100 chapters and articles\, and 200 podcasts on GIS\, education\, space\, place\, and related topics. He has visited over 350 schools and 400 universities around the world. He regularly conducts professional development for educators. He has created over 6\,200 videos\, 1\,000 lessons\, 1\,000 blog essays\, and authored 12 books\, including Interpreting Our World\, Spatial Thinking in Environmental Contexts\, Essentials of the Environment\, Spatial Mathematics\, Tribal GIS\, International Perspectives on Teaching and Learning\, the GIS Guide to Public Domain Data\, and others. But as a lifelong learner\, he feels as though he’s just getting started and thus actively seeks mentors\, partners\, and collaborators. \nJoin the Session\nAbout GeoCircles and Join the Session
