GIS, Analyzing Our World in MS/HS Earth and Social Science:

Learn how to use GeoInquiries to bring excitement to learning! GeoInquiries are short, standards-based mapping activities that use a geographic inquiry process to introduce earth and social science concepts to middle and high school students. GeoInquiries use ArcGIS Online technology (free to schools!) to uniquely engage students in content beyond the textbook while promoting critical thinking about the world around them. Lessons include learning objectives, technical “how-to’s”, textbook references, and formative whole-class assessment items.
