Hello Everyone-
Please consider presenting a paper or organizing a panel discussion
at the 2008 ESRI Education User Conference . The EdUC brings together
educators at all levels to discuss the uses of GIS for teaching,
research, and informal education. The conference is August 2-5, 2008 in
San Diego, CA.
The deadline for submitting proposals is *November 2, 2007*, and the web
site is http://www.esri.com/events/educ/papers/callforpapers.html.
If you have suggestions for topics for a panel discussion or a hands-on
computer workshop, please contact me at [log in to unmask]

Also, the Proceedings from the 2007 Education User Conference are
available online at http://gis.esri.com/library/userconf/educ07/index.html.
Finally, I am pleased to announce the launch of the ESRI Education
Community Web portal (edcommunity.esri.com
<http://edcommunity.esri.com>). The portal is designed to facilitate
the exchange of ideas and experiences, curriculum, and data between GIS
educators around the globe.
The site is open to anyone with an interest in GIS in education, and
includes several tools for collaboration and exchange. You can
find instructional materials, review existing materials, or suggest
new materials for others to use. You can also search the ESRI GIS
Education Bibliography for literature about the use of GIS in Education,
or the ESRI Library Bibliography for literature covering all aspects of
GIS. Note: the GIS Education Bibliography is a work in progress and
contributions are welcome.
cheers,
Angela Lee
