Joseph Kerski’s Bio:
Joseph Kerski (http://www.josephkerski.com) serves as Education Manager for Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) in Colorado USA (http://edcommunity.esri.com).. Prior to joining ESRI, he served since the Pleistocene Epochas Geographer at the US Geological Survey, and for 4 years as Geographer at the US Census Bureau. He has taught as adjunct instructor of GIS at Sinte Gleska University on the Rosebud Sioux Reservation, at the University of Denver, in primary and secondary schools, and in online courses. Joseph holds three degrees in Geography and thus is rather enthusiastic about studying biomes, population, landforms, hazards, and other topics using technology, maps, and imagery. Passionate about all aspects of spatial learning, Joseph seeks and fosters educational partnerships, promotes GIS in education and society through service and scholarship, and conducts training in geotechnologies for instructors, students, and administrators in a wide variety of educational levels and disciplines, internationally. He creates curricula focused on spatial thinking that uses geotechnologies as its chief inquiry-based tool, and conducts research in the effectiveness and implementation of these technologies in formal and informal educational settings. When not looking at a digital or paper map or aerial photo, Joseph might be found in a cave or playing the guitar.

North Camden Prison Site Design Meetings

March 3rd, 2010 by sjersey · No Comments

Thank you to all who attended the North Camden prison site community meetings on February 15th and 24th. If you would like to take another look at the presentation given by Mami Hara of WRT at the February 24th meeting, you can download it from the following link:

https://rcpt.yousendit.com/826167455/f14eb11803b600b23fe7ae6210d0a735

FYI, it is a large file so will take some time to download. Between now and the beginning of April, WRT will be using your comments and input to develop a plan and renderings for the prison site. When WRT is finished, we will distribute the documents to you for you to review. Thank you again for participating.
