Another opportunity that comes along with this project is speaking engagements. This picture shows three Waterville students in San Diego at the ESRI conference showing Jane Goodall how the prototype of the touch map works. They were able to zoom in on her study site in Africa and show her where Waterville was. These students shared the keynote speaking time with Ms. Goodall at that national convention and it was quite exciting meeting her.
It’s very important for your school and the tech person to set up an organized way of keeping track of your data. You need to know where to store files, what to call them and who will have access to them.
We set up classroom files the same for each class on the server.
We taught each class to save files in the same way. That way we don’t have to learn a new way each year.
Only teachers and mentors can access these files.
On the Naturemapping website you can find lots of lessons for teachers and students. We have tried some of them out and some of our work is included in the student section. We hope you will take a look at it.
Thank you for listening.
