Le passage au nuage de l'internet est une tendance qui est prometteur pour les SIG dans l'éducation. Le «nuage» se réfère à un réseau virtuel qui fournit de nombreux utilisateurs avec un accès aux fichiers, services et applications. Dans cet article, je soutiens que le nuage de l'internet et WebSIG ont le potentiel pour transformer l'éducation géographie. Je vais décrire trois études de cas qui font usage de ces outils émergents dans les salles de classe aux États-Unis, et de discuter des leçons que nous pouvons apprendre de ces cas. </span></span></p><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 6pt; text-align: justify; line-height: normal; text-indent: 14.2pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;,&quot;serif&quot;; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>MOTS-CLÉS</strong> WEBSIG; SIG; le nuage de l'internet; ArcGIS Online; ArcGIS Explorer Desktop (AGX). </span></span></p> |
