GIS Education Weekly: Spatial Skills Booster Course Raises STEM Scores
Programs, Degrees, and Courses
Advanced Webinar: Land Cover Classification with Satellite Imagery is a free, two session course from NASA that illustrates using QGIS for imagery. It's two Tuesdays, for four hours each starting January 31. Those who complete the required activities will receive a certificate of completion. ht/ Philip Davis.
I noted the Power of Data Project, a professional development offering for U.S. secondary school educators last week (under Geo for All news). Directions Magazine has an article on it this week.
Supergeo will release a series of online tutorials and courses in January. Via press release.

GIS Education Weekly: Esri Education GIS Conference
Esri Education GIS Conference
(Reminder and disclaimer: I have accepted a job with Esri. I was not in San Diego this past week and gathered this coverage from afar.)
Did you notice the map on the cover of this year's map book? It's Pat Kennelly's sky model terrain map! Kennelly teaches at LIU Post and Penn State. h/t @colorbrewer
The details of Esri making all e-learning free to all users (with qualifying products on maintenance) were shared at the opening Esri UC plenary. The new training site is not yet available, but a teaser site with a Q & A and video is. When launched the site will include education resources, including GeoInquiries and SpatiaLABS. Among the licenses and programs that qualify for the free resources are those commonly used in teaching and learning including Esri Higher Education Enterprise Licenses (Education Site License) and the ArcGIS for Personal Use Program.
