I’ll work with you, in small groups, to devise a lesson plan that allows you to share your interests and expertise with the class, while also connecting your individual projects to the overarching themes of the course.
The last half-hour of class will be reserved for tutorials and tech workshops to support your projects.
We will be focusing on building a dataset from scratch and ways of using Carto for some of your intended projects. If you need some more familiarity with Carto, please review the following links and videos. (Note: this is optional, but just meant to be helpful for folks who might be coming in with less technical experience.)
- “Getting started with CARTO” – Carto Documentation
- Create a Map in CARTO – Fei Li
- Analysis with CARTO – Eric Brelsford (this video is from 2017, so some of the Carto interfaces may look different)
- Online Spatial Data Visualisation with CARTO Builder Workshop (Absolute Beginner Level) – Meead Saberi
