By delving into the realm of remote sensing and satellite imagery, we aim to offer educators a fresh perspective on the geographical features and phenomena under study. Participants will explore numerous data sources, lesson plans, and resources available from NASA, USGS, Esri, National Geographic MapMaker, AmericaView, and others. Attendees can anticipate gaining innovative approaches to captivate and motivate students in their exploration of geography.<\/p>\n<h4>Session Focus<\/h4>\n<p>All Grade Levels | Visualization | GIS | Remote Sensing | Technology<\/p>\n<h4>Conference Room<\/h4>\n<p>Xavier<\/p>\n<h4>Meet the Presenter<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-17450\" src=\"https:\/\/ncge.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Amy-Logan-23-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"125\" height=\"188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ncge.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Amy-Logan-23-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/ncge.org\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Amy-Logan-23.jpg 526w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 125px) 100vw, 125px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Amy Logan<\/strong> is passionate about helping K-12 teachers incorporate more geospatial technology into their classrooms.
