Bodzin, Alec M.; Anastasio, David; Sharif, Rajhida; Rutzmoser, Scott – Journal of Geoscience Education, 2016
Learning with Web-based geographic information system (Web GIS) can promote geospatial thinking and analysis of georeferenced data. Web GIS can enable learners to analyze rich data sets to understand spatial relationships that are managed in georeferenced data visualizations. We developed a Web GIS plate tectonics simulation as a capstone learning…
