Computer Cartography in Undergraduate Education: A Multidisciplinary Seminar

计算机和地图是为期一周的研讨会的主题， 熟悉本科院校理科教师 随着计算机制图的最新发展，包括计算机如何 制作地图，以及计算机最终将如何改变 映射和地图的外观。 具体目标是 提高科学教师的方法和技术的知识， 计算机制图在本科教育;鼓励使用和 大学生空间参考数据库的开发 教学活动;在本科理科教师中发展 对空间引用数据类型有更有意义的理解， 数据来源及其在制作地图中的用途;并建立一个论坛 为教学策略的持续沟通， 专业制图员和理科本科教师 教育

Computers and mapping are the topic of a one week seminar that is familiarizing undergraduate college and university science teachers with recent developments in computer mapping, including how computers make maps, and how computers eventually will change both the nature of mapping and the appearance of maps. The specific objectives are to enhance science teachers' knowledge of the methods and techniques of computer cartography in undergraduate education; encourage the use and development of spatially-referenced data bases for undergraduate instructional activities; develop among undergraduate science teachers a more meaningful understanding of spatially-referenced data types and data sources and their uses in producing maps; and establish a forum for the continuous communication of teaching strategies between professional cartographers and undergraduate teachers of science education.
