Hi, I am excited and nervous about taking classes (GIS 3015/GIS 4043)! It has been 23 years since I took an online class and a lot has changed. I am looking forward to finding myself again after focusing my attention on others the last few years.
I have no prior formal experience with GIS. As a member of the Okaloosa County School Board I began researching esri based routing software packages to be used by our transportation department. I found GIS to be an intriguing subject and wanted to know more. I hope to obtain a graduate certificate to help me find a new career utilizing my previous engineering background and new GIS skill set.

Creating My Story Map was a challenge for me. I had to create my story plan and find photos that would explain my background. I created a public Picasa account to upload my photos. I could not have completed these introductory assignments without having the videos to watch and the written instructions and tutorials. These aids were a tremendous help.
Enrolling in these courses is definitely taking me out of my comfort zone!
Hello. I'm a student of Geography in one of the Nigerian Universities. Please I will appreciate if you can humanly assist me with practical approach to GIS. Thank you.
