Story Maps enable you to combine interactive maps with narrative text, images, and multimedia content. They provide a powerful, engaging, and inspiring alternative for educational activities and assessments, as well as instructional delivery, as compared to traditional presentation or paper-writing methods. In this workshop we will share examples of how instructors are using Story Maps within their courses, discuss best practices for using the Story Map application, and create a Cascade Story Map. Workshop exercises will be based on Esri’s tutorial “Getting Started with Story Maps”.
