   Description:    
    This document is intended to be used as guidelines for those conducting GIS and related technologies (GPS, Remote Sensing, web-mapping) professional development events (hands-on, face-to-face, and online courses, workshops, and institutes) for faculty at all levels of education, worldwide. It may also be useful in teaching with GIS where students range in age from youth to adult. This document does not pretend to give every bit of advice on conducting GIS classes and training events, but it is hoped that these elements are helpful. For more guidance on teaching with GIS, network with the GIS education community via http://edcommunity.esri.com, the Ed-GIS listserv, with local and regional educators, and via other means.
