Module 7–Thursday morning and afternoon, June 30

We will turn our attention to mapping, making sure that we have opened an Esri account.

Here are Emilie’s two first tutorials.

Here’s the PowerPoint that accompanies the second tutorial.

Once you have finished watching the tutorial, try creating the same map. It helps to have two screens, one with the tutorial, the other with your data.

If you have time, check out the second tutorial which covers story maps, which are powerful visual storytelling options.

Here’s the PDF version of the story map tutorial.

Emilie’s noon-hour live session.

Here are some links Emilie has provided.

Here are direct links to the articles and StoryMaps that will be highlighted:

Here’s our final live session.
