SCI 225 Milestone Two Guidelines and Rubric

SCI 225 Milestone Two Guidelines and RubricSubmit an outline of the Tools and Technologies portion of the final project.The submission should include a description of the geospatial tools and technologies that could be used to explore or enhance your selected discipline and anevaluation of no-cost or open-source geospatial tools and technologies that you will use to create your map in Milestone Three.Specifically the following critical elements must be addressed:A. Describe geospatial tools and technologies that could be used to explore or enhance your discipline. Consider tools you used throughout the course inaddition to others that could be discipline-specific.B. Apply these tools and technologies to your discipline. In other words, how can these geospatial tools and technologies be used to explore or enhanceyour discipline? Support your claims using your research of spatial awareness in your discipline.C. Select no-cost or open-source geospatial tools and technologies to use to create a map that accurately represents an aspect of your discipline. Whichgeospatial open-source and no-cost tools and technologies will you use to create your map? Why? Examples of open-source and no-cost tools andtechnologies that you could use include ArcGIS Online, QGIS, Google Earth, MapStory, and Story Maps.Guidelines for Submission: The format of this milestone will be a presentation with at least 10 slides. Your presentation should use PowerPoint or anothercomparable presentation tool, with speech notes.Instructor Feedback: This activity uses an integrated rubric in Blackboard. Students can view instructor feedback in the Grade Center.
