Hi! I am
Esmeralda, and the role I've had this week on TheLittleAnts's group was the
curator-farmer.
This week our work was about Cartographic
Projections and Treasure Hunt. Some of the most important cartographic
projections we've studied were Robinson's projection, Mercator's projection and
Azimuthal's projection. My role of this
week consisted on organizing the majority of information in a Pearltrees so;
here you have the link of my work: You can have a general idea of some of the most important cartographic projections whit the Pearltrees I've done. Also, you can find the example of Treasure Hunt we were working during the week.
We
researched more information in order to add additional information to the link
that the teacher gave us.

Hello :
ReplyDeleteI have found this post really interesting. Nobody cares about maps, but they are an important tool that have helped us from the most insignificant travel, to the discovery of new lands.
I think that the pearltree used here makes easier the understanding of the different kinds of maps. A picture speaks a thousand words!!
Keep working, little ants!
Thank you, Anonymous!!
ReplyDeleteWith this task we have learnt the kind of maps and projections which are used, such as the Robinson projection, the Mercator projection which is the more used in the school or the Azimuthal projection which is the most real but the less used.
This kind of practices makes us think of how we are going to teach the subjects in the future.
I hope you have learnt new things with our blog! See you soon :)
