Conservation Through Coordination | Exploring with GIS

From the Education Resource Library! Primatologist and conservation hero, Jane Goodall, took her work from observation and research to conservation and activism when she saw the effects of deforestation first hand. Through app based data collection, mapping, and collaboration with the Jane Goodall Institute, local forest monitors are able to generate maps to monitor and protect their forests for generations to come.  

Here are some activities for your students:
K-5: Draw a picture or photo strip of something you learned.
Grades 5-8: Write a short “news article” about what you learned.
High School: Produce a short video that explains something you learned today.

Share your students activities by @NatGeoEducation and using #ExplorerClassroom on Twitter. Our team will share your student work with the Explorer.
