GIS Hub at Campus Libraries: Accessing your ESRI License and other mapping tools

This session provides an overview of geospatial services at campus libraries and how we can support your research visualization. The session will explain how you can access your ESRI account, explore different types of data that can be visualized spatially, and discuss potential solutions for displaying qualitative and quantitative data sets.

Learning objectives: In this workshop participants will:

• Recognize how culture and ideology affect the production of scholarship and privilege some voices over others
• Identify the information creation processes commonly used in a particular field or discipline
• Identify how process and methodology may enable or limit the information contained in various sources
• Determine your information needs and the appropriate scope of inquiry
• Identify barriers scholars, learners and others face when participating in scholarly conversation and the impact this has on research and knowledge
• Recognize the social nature of information, identifying the relationship between authors, scholars, and sources of information, understanding that information is not static but constantly changing over time
