Performance Assessment
• “Measure what kids can do with knowledge, not how many right answers they can give to questions.” Seymour Papert

Project Based Learning
• “Students work together in groups to solve challenging problems that are authentic, curriculum-based, and often interdisciplinary.” Gwen Solomon, Technology and Learning
• The teacher is learning at the same time as the students and with the students

What is GIS?
• GIS is a computer software that allows you to store, analyze and display data LINKED TOGETHER GEOGRAPHICALLY.
• With this program you can manage information of any kind according to where it is located.

Data Can Be Queried
The datatables can be queried and the results displayed geographically.

Themes
• The data is layered together in themes.
• Each theme of data has its own database of attributes attached.
• There are three types of themes: polygons, lines, and points.
