Class Experience

Students will learn about chloropleth maps and ArcGIS Online.  I will demonstrate this by sharing my screen where I will make a map alongside them.  We will then discuss as a class the variety of topics that can be shown with a chloropleth maps and some basic color theory (do certain colors work better than others for the topic that you are portraying?).  The students will then get a chance to work on their own map displaying data of their choice from the Census data. They will share their screens so I can provide feedback and guidance on their maps. Students should have a basic understanding of computers and the Internet.  Students should also know terminology of different map features such as: compass, legend, title, scale bar, etc.

Learning Goals

Students will learn what a chloropleth map is.  Students will learn how to navigate ArcGIS Online and will make a basic chloropleth map using Census data.  Students will also get an overview of map design standards and best practices.
