CMAP Class ~ Day 1
Ross said these first few days would be overwhelming, but, so far, it hasn't been. Maybe it's because I already geocache, so it's not all new information. I am really excited about the possibilities with the community mapping. I'd like to do some personal projects, like mapping areas of standing water in my neighborhood to then take to the city so that those areas can be fixed to abate the mosquito population. I'd also like to do ,ore with my students using the GPS. I've done an activity in the past using way points, but there seem to be more possibilities now. The old GPS units the district had we're really hard to use, these are very simple. I am planning on having my boys use it tonight when I get home.
