Assignment

Drawing on this week's examples and readings, use data from our group Zotero library or shared Evernote notebook to make a  map using StoryMap or the Map Widget in Scalar. For directions on how to embed a StoryMap into a Scalar page go here; for direction on how to use Scalar's Map Widget go here. If you would like to use new data related to our research, add the source(s) to one or both of our shared collections.  Build or embed your map in a new page of our workbook titled "Student's Name + Spatial Analysis."  Follow the instructions on the "Assignment" page of our workbook to make sure that it shows up in the contents of your "Portfolio" and the "Spatial Analysis" page.
