Geo Tools for Teachers

This course is part of an Erasmus+ project called MYGEO (https://www.mygeoproject.eu)

The aim of the project is to enhance employment on GIS using a MYGEO portfolio and geo-tools for university teaching. The MOOC has 8 modules with learning and teaching examples using common themes in university lectures.

Objectives
– Promote the use of geotechnologies in university teaching in order to implement the technological students skills.

– Facilitate University teaching examples, using free and quality geodata that facilitate research, analysis and information management and its visualization.

Topics

1. Where can I get and how can I see geodata?
2. How can data be manipulated?
3. How to make decisions?
4. How can I manage data with mobile geo-tools? How can I make a geolocated survey?
5. How can I share data on a Web GIS?
6. How can I explore the power of satellite images?
7. How can I make a 3D representation?
8. How can I design a demo version of an application for a mobile device?

Assessment

It will be a test at the end of any module. Two questionnaires, one initial and one final after following all modules, is also a mandatory requirement to obtain the course certification.
