CHRGIS demonstration

Today we had a guest speaker; Ms Deidre Williams;Research Spec III for the CHRGIS
GIS Database. She showed us the GIS Database for Restored Habitat on Corpus Christi Bay. She showed us an interesting webs This website has a link just for kids that is under construction, but is going to be wonderful for student of all ages to use. Ms. Williams is part of the team that is going to help children understand changes in our environment and geology. Geology the study of earth is a wonderful thing to be studied. She is allowing our students to understand better. And she is giving teacher a great tool because she is giving our student an interactive visualize aid. This website changes as data changes and is collected. Students are able to go on and see how the lands, inland, water, channels, how the environment has changed. I think this is a great tool because student can look as see the past. It is one thing to talk about it, but to be able to give student a visualize aid to go along with the lesson is great. Ms. Williams said this site is for all ages. I could see any grade level using this tool, but I could definitely see how a 5th grader would love this site.
