Name
Mathematical Moments Link

The American Mathematical Society publishes Mathematical Moments, a series of posters (accompanied with MP3 files, podcasts, and web links) that capture the role of mathematics in science, nature, technology, and human culture. Covering topics such as Bending it Like Bernoulli to Sailing Faster, it is not surprising that most of approximately 100 entries invoke spatial (as well as mathematical) reasoning.

spatial@ucsb Link

Inaugurated in 2008, the goals of the Center for Spatial Studies (spatial@ucsb) at University of California, Santa Barabara include:

  • Integrating spatial thinking into the corpus of reasoning across the domains of knowledge for research and teaching.
  • Framing curricula to equip UCSB graduates with the concepts, methods, and applications of spatial thinking.
  • Promoting research on new tools and applications of spatial thinking.

Envisioning a National Geospatial Technology Resource Center

The primary goal of this project was to develop a vision and plan for a national geospatial technology resource center in order to facilitate the development of curriculum, network technical expertise, and serve as a clearinghouse for products and services that will meet the needs of students, educators, government, business, and industry across a wide spectrum of disciplines. This project formed a steering committee of leaders in geospatial education to research issues critical to industry and education. These issues included: workforce needs, geospatial core competencies, certification, curriculum, pedagogy, educational pathways (including articulation and internships), professional development, communication, geospatial awareness and diversity, globalization and regionalize, future trends, and the qualities of a successful ATE Center.
