1. Learn about building an interesting unique world map. 2. Develop the imagination and learn graphic design communication skills. 3.

I am a qualified schoolteacher and have taken many school classes to explore sites around London and then map them. I am also a trained artist and storyteller and bring geography and cultural studies alive through images and narratives. I have worked as a graphic web designer and taught visual communication to teenagers. Through the activity of making maps we will be activating the imagination and learning how to present ideas and solutions graphically.
Bring a pencil and eraser and your favourite art supplies -- and at least one large sheet of paper to draw on! I suggest A3 - you can stick 2 sheets of printer paper together.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
