Presenting GI Learner at the ESRI Educ conference in San Diego

From time to time we need to update the exercises, and this for a number of reasons: the data can be updated with more recent numbers or website changed their content. It is therefore crucial to come back to our website – Course page – to download the latest version. E.g. Globalisation has been updated.

On the top right of the website you will see the icon Google translate. This offers the opportunity to automatically translate the whole website into a defined number of languages. It’s an automatic translation, so useful but not 100% accurate. Nevertheless it makes this website even more accessible for a lot of people.

From Sunday 25 February till Saturday 3 March the pupilw who have been involved over the past 3 school years in testing of the materials will meet in Madrid. The program provides time to meet, to do some GI-related exercises in Madrid and to write at the final outcome.
