Leveraging Online Maps to Teach Next Generation Standards in Earth Science

DESCRIPTION

This presentation explores the use of online maps to enrich Earth Science education through the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). By leveraging accessible, authoritative spatial data, educators can provide students with in-depth knowledge of core scientific concepts, avoiding superficial coverage. Online platforms like ArcGIS.com enable teachers to aggregate and visualize relevant data, fostering deeper engagement with scientific inquiry and engineering design. Resources such as Project BudBurst offer valuable real-world datasets that can be integrated into the curriculum. Join us in transforming Earth Science education!
