GIS Activities for students: Make a hazard map!

Joseph J. Kerski, Ph.D., Education Manager with ESRI, presents an easy and quick GIS educational opportunity for students:

"In less than 60 seconds, you and your students can make a map of earthquakes, storms, wildfires, and eruptions in the US (or the world, using Option B) with this Esri Web GIS tool:

And you can also embed the resulting map on a web page and use that as an assessment instrument or in a presentation!"

What tools do you use with your class to engage students in GIS education?
