Teaching is thrilling, exasperating, energizing, and exhausting, frequently in the same hour, but for those truly called to the craft, it is constantly captivating. Helping other educators grow their skills is even more … of everything. Now, imagine coupling this with GIS, a tool with the power to harness, reveal, integrate, explain, model, and even mesmerize, using the limitless and exploding data about the world, from macro to micro … a tool for understanding the world and solving problems.
Esri’s educator institute, “Teachers Teaching Teachers GIS,” is a chance to build skills in three distinct legs of a stool, all at once … in using GIS, teaching with technology, and providing professional development. But T3G relies on all three legs, and so is only for those hungry to help other educators use GIS. It is an event for both classroom practitioners and education influencers alike, from grade school to grad school, from one-room schools to district or state offices, from university deans to wizards of informal settings who enchant across many ages at once.
The 8th annual T3G is now receiving applications. T3G2016 seeks 100 passionate educators and influencers anxious to change the world, through education, with GIS. The event is Sunday July 17 – Fri July 22, 2016. Applications are available now, and due by Nov 9, 2015.
Be part of a growing community (see Map#5). Build your skills to make a difference, in lives, communities, and the planet. Check out the movies, take the prerequisite course, and read the application doc, even if you are not sure – these are all good steps for becoming a true artisan — a GIS-using educator.
