To understand the research needs at the intersection of computing and GIS, we need to understand the goals and purpose of GIS users and developers. A GIS is not a "database with spatial spice" or "nomadic computing with location throw...
متن کاملUsing multimodal writing tasks in science classrooms

Like many high school science teachers, I often thought that devoting class time to writing would take away from valuable time that could be spent doing “science learning” activities. I also felt that my training as a science teacher had not fully p...
