Geographic Information Systems Workshop Undergraduate

项目摘要

Michigan Technological University will operate a series of workshops in the area of geographic information systems (GIS). The workshops are critical to fill a need in keeping undergraduate faculty members abreast of new ideas and techniques utilizing geographic information systems. This will result in the updating of GIS courses. Hence undergraduates will have the appropriate knowledge and training for employment as a GIS specialist. Two two-week workshops will be held at the School of Forestry and Wood Products, Michigan Technological University, Houghton, Michigan. The workshops will provide the participants with an opportunity to meet, receive state-of the art information, gain hands-on experience, exchange ideas, and develop appropriate lectures and laboratory exercises for undergraduate GIS courses. In addition, attendees will meet with several GIS managers to see how a GIS operates on a day-to-day basis, and determine what employees deem important for undergraduate GIS students to know. Success of the project will be determined by a questionnaire assessing both the quality of the workshop and the utility of the lecture and lab manual developed as part of the workshop. In addition to the NSF funds, participants institutions will provide about 15% in travel costs toward the operation of the project.

密歇根理工大学将举办一系列研讨会，地理信息系统（GIS）。这些讲习班这对于满足本科教师的需求至关重要，利用地理信息系统的新思想和新技术。这将导致更新地理信息系统课程。因此本科生将有适当的知识和培训就业作为一个地理信息系统专家。将在林业和木材学院举办两个为期两周的讲习班产品，密歇根理工大学，霍顿，密歇根州。的讲习班将为与会者提供一个机会，接收最先进的信息，获得实践经验，交流想法，并制定适当的讲座和实验室练习，本科地理信息系统课程。此外，与会者将与几个GIS管理人员，了解GIS如何在日常基础上运行，并确定员工认为对本科GIS重要的内容学生要知道。该项目的成功将通过问卷评估来确定研讨会的质量以及讲座和实验室的实用性作为讲习班的一部分编写的手册。除了NSF基金外，参与机构还将提供大约15%的差旅费用于项目的运营。
