  2. IN GeoSpatial Education: Connecting INView, IGIC, & GENI • Indiana Social Studies Academic Standards • K-12, GHW, APHG • geospatial technologies first appeared in 1998: GPS and GIS • currently embedded under concepts as “text” – state and national • Professional Development via GENI • IGIC • GIS statewide connections • Thanks to IU, IGS, IN Spatial Data Portal, GIO… • THANKS to YOU and your colleagues and predecessors • collaborations with GENI: conferences, professional development, assist with lesson plan/curriculum development, field work… • professionals interact with educators and students • National Board on Geographic Names – lesson plan • INView • 2 high school student tutorials: lesson plans, PDF, inter-actives, glossary • 1 middle school student tutorial: to be complete September, 2014 • IN GeoSpatial Technologies Policy Timeline • foundation and history • shared resources for future planning • Framework for Connecting GeoSpatial Outreach – Dewayne Branch @ Purdue • IN/ESRI Statewide Site License for K-12 Purposes

  3. INView/GENI Collaborative Efforts • Response to opportunity provided by IndianaView (USGS/AmericaView) • Need identified by IndianaView Consortium: • education/outreach materials that use/highlight state geospatial data initiatives • geospatial curriculum materials for (IN) K-12 educators & students • Determined to address students in high school (Indiana) • Geography & History of the World • Advanced Placement Human Geography • Create common nomenclature for educators & students (glossary) • Presented the Project idea at 2012 GIS Conference • Themes obtained from you and your colleagues; preparing students for decision-making from a spatial perspective with latest technologies • Land use change • Water • Blog site: http://geni.iupui.edu • Tutorials, lesson plans, inter-actives, glossary, IN Landsat imagery/datasets collection • Inter-actives have built-in assessment tools
