What are these discussions about?

Earlier this year, a global community of educators launched a series of panel discussions about the ideas of being a resilient educator of GI science and systems - https://www.globalgiscienceeducation.org/. UCGIS has been helping to organize and promote these online conversations that discuss how these disruptive experiences can become opportunities for rethinking and re-envisioning our practices and perspectives as we strive towards more resiliency. Videos of the first three panels (Asia-Pacific, the Americas, and Europe-Africa), as well as a summarized report from these, can be found here - Pedagogies for Resilient GIScience Education - https://www.globalgiscienceeducation.org/conversations/panel-1-pedagogies.    Now we're in the midst of the 2nd set of panel discussions on the technologies and implementation. Join us!
