- Esri_Education_User_Conference abstract "Launched in 2000, Esri's Education User Conference (EdUC), is organized and hosted by Esri's Educational Programs Team the weekend before the annual Esri International User Conference (Esri UC). Held in San Diego, California, during the month of July, the mission of the EdUC is to support and promote the use of geographic information systems (GIS) in educational research, instruction, administration, and policy.Over the years, it has grown into a sizable and popular event for those involved in using and teaching GIS in the greater educational community. This includes school teachers, youth program leaders, college and university instructors, community leaders, librarians, museum professionals, and administrators of educational institutions. The conference includes user presentation sessions, hands-on training workshops, exhibits, special interest group meetings, and a plenary session including a keynote presentation. User presentations are organized into several tracks, including teaching with GIS, using GIS for administration and policy-making, community projects, using GIS in libraries and museums, and research on the impacts of GIS in educational settings. Presentation materials are compiled into proceedings which are published online, after the conference. Hands-on training workshops address both the pedagogical aspects of using GIS in a classroom setting and specific software skills. The exhibits provide access to businesses, government agencies, and other organizations with products and services for using GIS in education, including GPS hardware, curriculum and textbooks, software, and certificate/degree programs. Special Interest Group (SIG) meetings provide an opportunity for networking and in-depth discussion of specialized topics. Prior to the establishment of the EdUC, activities for educators were a regular part of the Esri UC. Today, these activities are designed to draw attendees from both the EdUC and the International UC, encouraging collaboration between academia, business, and government. For example, the Academic GIS Program Fair was launched at the Esri UC in the 1990s and has since become incorporated into the Esri EdUC. This event provides attendees with the opportunity to meet with representatives from colleges and universities about their academic GIS programs and educational offerings.\t In 2009, the GeoMentor program was announced during opening ceremonies at the Esri UC. This program pairs GIS professionals that would like to share their expertise with teachers that want to engage their students with GIS technology. The GeoMentor program operates as a Web-based matchmaking service between the GIS expert and the classroom and provides a structure to help professionals who work in different spheres to successfully collaborate.".
