Climate and Energy: Application of Geospatial Technology Project Overview || Learning Outcomes || Project Directions With the use of geospatial tools (GIS and/or remote sensing), students will determine the energy source with the most potential in various geographic regions. Students will create a PowerPoint poster, video (potential to collaborate with video department), art project (potential to collaborate with art department and develop an outside mural) or develop a Web page (Second Life or web page) to display and share their findings. There projects will be highlighted at MCC functions (e.g., Sustainability Day, GIS Day, and/or Earth Day). Some projects may continue each semester as new students take the course and began where the last student left off. Course Objective 5: How to apply physical geographic elements and GIS to interpret the present and plan the future. Learning Objective 5A: Student will be able to (SWBT) use geospatial tools to represent and interpret the various energy source option(s) in one region of the United States (skills and knowledge, evaluation and application). Learning Objective 5B: Students will be able to create a poster, web site, or location in Second Life that briefly describes the current climatic condition, recent climate changes, evaluate the various energy source option(s), and presents an energy plan for the future in one region of the United States (skills and knowledge, evaluation and application). Learning Objective 5C: Students will be able to critique student projects and interpret the various energy source option(s) in regions of the United States (skills and knowledge, evaluation and application).
Course Objective 6: How is climate and energy personal to you. Learning Objective 6A: What are the 5 most important points of this course. Learning Objective 6B: How are the topics covered connected to you outside of the course. Learning Objective 6C: Based on the above class objective (1-5), how well did you learn the objectives and how could you have done better. Explain what ways do you learn best.
