The document discusses the challenges and solutions in learning GIS for interdisciplinary research, focusing on collaboration between a geographer and an anthropologist. It emphasizes the importance of team-building and training to bridge knowledge gaps, and suggests using online resources like 'GIS Lessons for You' to facilitate learning. The approach promotes creating a virtual learning environment to enhance GIS skills collaboratively, regardless of geographical barriers.
Informal / Non-Formal Ways of Learning GIS in interdisciplinary Research
- 1. Informal/Non-Formal Ways of Learning GIS In Interdisciplinary Research Patrick Rickles
- 2. This is me I’m a geo-geek
- 3. This is Jerome He’s an Anthropologist
- 4. We deal with different things We learn in different ways
- 5. But we work together using locational analyses
- 6. I learn some Anthropology He learns some GIS
- 7. Interdisciplinary Research isn’t easy… Learning GIS isn’t easy…
- 8. We Find the Challenges -Knowledge Gap
- 9. We Try the Solutions -Team-building -Training
- 10. We Identify What to Learn GIS&T BoK -Geospatial Data -Cartography & Visualisation
- 11. So, learn together how to make maps and data
- 12. But he’s in the Congo now… And I’m here…
- 13. We have the Internet!
- 14. Use the Internet to Create a Virtual Situated Learning Environment
- 16. Contextually relevant things interdisciplinary researchers want to learn to do using ArcGIS Online
- 17. -(More) User Friendly -Cloud-Based -Wealth of Resources Why ?
- 18. Check out “GIS Lessons for You” and learn together wherever you are
Editor's Notes
- #2: Thanks for coming and thanks to Prof. Cusack for sharing those experiences with us My name is Patrick Rickles and I’ll be presenting on Identifying Important GIS Concepts in Interdisciplinary Research In particular the practical work I did Analysing Google Scholar search results to link current IDR theories to practice
