Bring your research into the spotlight: Tell your story with maps (Storymapping)  

Most UG researchers and students have a lot of knowledge and data on their research subjects. In this course we learn & help you to build a visual story based on scientific research. With StoryMapping you can give your narrative a stronger sense of place, simply illustrate relationships between places and add visual examples such as photos or videos to your ideas.

Goal

Participants can expect to learn the key concepts of storytelling and web-mapping in this course. If participants have their own set of maps and other multimedia ready-for-use they can take this with them in the course. If not, we have prepared a challenging set of materials which they can use and experience the full possibilities of StoryMapping.
