Transformation

Dear Educators,

Sometimes change happens slowly over time, and sometimes huge changes happen all at once. Slow changes that happen without you noticing allow you to adapt slowly, but transformative changes are much more jarring, or exciting!

We have a new collection in Maps101 of transformative educational content that we are really excited
to share with you!

We have a collection of GeoInquiries from Esri that we have transformed into self-guided, standards-aligned, inquiry-based lessons.

As the teacher, you have a PDF teacher guide, and your students have a beautiful, self-guided Lesson Map to use GIS-based inquiry to discover their world.

Explore the entire collection today! Topics from History, Geography, to Environmental Science!

Here are a few of our favorite lessons.

Marine Debris

Investigate marine debris, the role of ocean gyres, and how humans impact trash accumulation.

Tropical Storms

Use hurricane track information to understand factors that encourage the formation of hurricanes.

Crop Circles
(Math)

Use remotely sensed data to estimate and measure the area of (center-pivot irrigation) crop circles.
