GIS Educators Day, sponsored by NEARC and Esri, is a full-day conference (October 5, 2014) devoted exclusively to topics and issues pertaining to the use of GIS and other geospatial technologies in K-12, college, and informal education.
GIS Educators Day is a one-day pre-conference to NEARC’s annual professional user conference which will run from October 5 – October 8 at the Mystic Marriott in Groton, Connecticut. GIS Educators Day will feature hands-on computer labs, presentations, and participant-driven conversations on a range of resources, projects, and topics.
GIS Educators Day addresses the number one goal of GIS conference goers...the opportunity to network with other professionals who share your interest in the educational applications of geospatial technologies. Whether you’re a K-12 or college educator, an experienced GIS user or a newcomer who wants to learn about the educational possibilities of this powerful tool, you’ll want to put this outstanding regional event on your "Must Do" list for 2014.
