Teaching Mathematics Using Interactive Mapping offers novel ways to
learn basic math topics such as Simple Relational Measures or
Measuring Hierarchies through customized interactive mapping
activities. These activities focus on interactive web-based GIS and
are relevant to today’s problems and challenges. Written in a
guided, hands-on, understandable manner, all activities are
designed to build practical and problem-solving skills that rest on
mathematical principles and move students from thinking about maps
as references that focus solely on “where is” something, to
analytical tools, focusing primarily on the “whys of where.”
Success with this transition through interaction permits most
readers to master mathematical concepts and GIS tools. Features
Offers custom-designed geographical activities to fit with specific
mathematical topics. Helps students become comfortable using
mathematics in a variety of professions. Provides an innovative,
engaging, and practical set of activities to ease readers through
typically difficult, often elementary, mathematical topics:
fractions, the distributive law, and much more. Uses web-based GIS
maps, apps, and other tools and data that can be accessed on any
device, anywhere, at any time, requiring no prior GIS background.
Written by experienced teachers and researchers with lifelong
experience in teaching mathematics, geography, and spatial
analysis. This textbook applies to undergraduate and graduate
students in universities and community colleges including those in
basic mathematics courses, as well as upper-level undergraduate and
graduate students taking courses in remote sensing and
photogrammetry, in geography, geodesy, information science,
engineering, and geology. Professionals interested in learning
techniques and technologies for collecting, analyzing, managing,
processing, and visualizing geospatial datasets will also benefit
from this book as they refresh their knowledge in mathematics.
