Are you curious about integrating content?  Solving real world problems that students are interested in?  If so, this is the professional learning for you!  

For centuries, maps have been created and used to help people understand their world.  In the 21^st Century, interactive web maps provide dynamic teaching resources at multiple scales from local to global scale.  They can be used to harness student interest in inquiry-driven lessons enabling students to learn about history, geography, mathematics, science, and how to communicate effectively in language arts.  Join us and geographer Joseph Kerski in an engaging, relevant, and lively workshop that will empower your students to understand and also to care for the Earth.
