Prepared by the Advisory Unit, the home of the best-selling AEGIS GIS for schools, the poster is a handy route map for students creating new AEGIS projects. The poster helps students with controlled assessments and other fieldwork activities by leading them through a trail reflecting the enquiry approach to learning that is required by examination boards.
Just click on the link www.advisory-unit.org.uk and download the poster from the Advisory Unit web site. Print as a handout and enlarge to A3 to go on the wall.
Not sure how the students will use AEGIS? There’s a QR code link on the poster to ‘how to do it’ video tutorials on the Advisory Unit web site. Any smartphone will ‘read’ the code and link to a page of YouTube videos that demonstrate GIS skills for projects.
More about AEGIS
AEGIS is the most widely used GIS for schools with a one-off purchase for installation on the school network. Once you have the program you can embed GIS in classwork for world development, local activities or regional studies or use AEGIS as a basis for collecting, processing and mapping fieldwork data. AEGIS is a valuable resource right through the school from Year 7 to A2 giving students the skills required to display and search choropleth mapping, landuse mapping, traffic and pedestrian surveys, and bar and pie charts of locational data.
