How is digital mapping being used in classrooms?
• Learning about digital maps: - focus on learning the software- teacher is “sage on the stage”- focus on procedural tasks
vs.
• Learning with digital maps:- focus on learning subject matter - project based learning- problem solving - community based interaction- authentic assessment
![Page 39: Using Google Earth in the Classroom Thomas Chandler, PhD](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56649eff5503460f94c14443/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
• Example: Ligon Magnet Middle School in Raleigh, North Carolina: Students incorporated digital maps into an oral history project– Formerly a segregated community. Students
interviewed alumni who graduated in the 1930s and 1940s
– Reclaimed historic places on contemporary maps– Used Sanborn fire insurance maps found at municipal
urban planning office– Dr. Marsha Alibrandi

The Sanborn maps vividly illustrated the history of segregation in the community.
