GIS Webinar: Design and Implementation of a Distance Education Course on Open Source Web Mapping

As more GIS educators contemplate offering their courses and academic programs online, they are faced with a slew of pedagogy and technology challenges.  In this presentation we will interview two professors from the University of Twente in the Netherlands who have successfully incorporated proven pedagogical strategies in their GIS courses.  The webinar will focus on the use of Learning Design principles for developing an effective eLearning GIS course.  We will feature an Open Source Web Mapping solution as the demonstration eLearning course.
