I've been working on a project to document the use of geospatial language in K-12 curriculum standards.  If you are interested in the first public draft of the documents, I invite you to explore the website at: https://trbaker.github.io/GIStandards 

 

If you have comments or suggestions, I would welcome your email at trbaker (at) esri.com.

Will this have a US states map representing the data over a thematic shading or color scheme? I would be interested in seeing this visually portrayed spatially in addition to the project documentation. Either way this is a great project and am very glad to read through it!

Thanks & God bless,

Hi Jansen.

It's already there.  Look in the Overview document (at the top of the state list).

 

Thanks,

Tom

Did you consider keywords associated with "analysis"?  I use analysis related standards for our GIS training.

Hi @TomBaker & @LRFTheRiverMile , I did find it, and I had looked into the analysis aspects at length when I had the time to. Been to busy to reply sooner 🙂

Thank you both kindly & have a great weekend!

TheRiverMile -

 

The work does include 'geographic analysis' as one of the keywords.  You can see the full list here: https://trbaker.github.io/GIStandards/appendix_keywords.html 

 

Thanks for your interest.
