The GoogleSpatial World: Making Classrooms a Spatial
Place

Why?
What are the key questions we expect adults to be able to answer/address in the 21st Century?
What skills will be needed? Where do we teach them?

Spatial Thinking
[The] ability to visualize and interpret location, distance, direction, relationships, movement and change over space (Sinton, 2009)
Looking for geographic patterns, interpreting
phenomena at different scales, answering the “why things are where they are” question

Support
National Academies Reports ◦ Learning to Think Spatially: GIS as a Support System in
the K-12 Curriculum Geographic Information Science has significant but as yet
unrealized potential for supporting spatial thinking across a range of subjects in the K-12 curriculum (pg. 8)
◦ Successful K-12 STEM Education: Identifying Effective Approaches in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics “Increase STEM literacy for all students, including those who
do not pursue STEM-related careers or additional study in the STEM disciplines” (pg. 5)

What are the GoogleSpatial Technologies?
Geobrowsers (i.e. Google Earth) GPS Remote Sensing GIS

Geobrowers
Easy to use Ubiquitous? Provide a new vantage point on the
world (the way in?)
![Page 7: Iste 2011 googlespatial kolvoord](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051513/5451a2c8af7959e94b8b6546/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
GPS
Huge growth in the automobile industry
Lots of schools have handheld GPS units – good opportunity to collect data (VGI or “citizen science”)
Do GPS units make us locationally stupid?

Remote Sensing
“Eyes in the Sky” Can be “pictures” or can be at
wavelengths we can’t perceive with our eyes

Google Earth lessons - http://gelessons.com/lessons/
Structured or unstructured, but mostly show and tell (relatively little analysis)

Broad variety of geographic data. The price is right, but flexibility and control are limited
