GIS in Geography – Lessons from the 2016 ESRI UK Conference

Students already embrace technology in their everyday lives and so the opportunity to interact with GIS inside the classroom can engage them in a manner they can relate to. From simply showing a map or story map to the whole class, through to individual students working with GIS tools themselves, there are a number of ways in which you can use GIS to provide a little something different in your lessons.

ESRI Conference 2016 On Tuesday 17 May I was one of the lucky 3000 or so participants attending the biggest GIS conference in the UK – the Annual Conference for ESRI UK. The opening plenary was an opportunity to learn about how GIS is used in the ‘real world’ outside of education: designers, National Trust property conservation, stopping pirates at sea and much more besides!
