Education
GIS is a tool that can help in many areas of education. With GIS, teachers can engage their students in the classroom and help them develop critical thinking and spatial analysis skills needed to meet the demands of today's globalized workforce. It can be used by school boards and campus administrators to monitor student enrolment. It can also help libraries and museums find the best way for their visitors to access information and help universities and colleges conduct their research.

There is considerable talk among educators about helping students enhance their higher level thinking skills. Nothing that I have encountered in 24 years of teaching has done this as well as the implementation of GIS technology in my classroom.
