My Map
My Reflection
1: Was I able to identify how the geography impacts the town/city with ease? How was I able to find how the physical geography impacted these areas?
I would say that I was able to identify how the geography impacts the town fairly easily. We were given lots of different sources, such as our textbooks and an atlas, and took lots of notes in class, so it wasn’t too difficult to find the information I needed.
2. How did the technology personally affect my learning? What were the pros and cons of using maphub.com? Be detailed in your response here.
I would say that I greatly benefitted from the use of technology in this project. To start, I was able to put all of my information into a word document, and then transfered that work into maphub afterwards, which made it easier to make sure I wasn’t forgetting to add any information to my map. I also really enjoyed using maphub, as it made plotting my points and formatting my information so much easier. I also had fun choosing my colors and pictures for the points, and I like how clean it looks in the end. My only complaint with this website is that customization of how you want your map to look is rather limited, with only a few ways to make your map unique.
3. Were you satisfied with the result of your design and solutions?
I would say that overall I was satisfied with the outcome of my project. I feel that the design of the map looks really clean, and I think that all of my information is formatted in a way that makes it easy to find and read. As well, I feel that the pictures I added enhanced the design and made it look more professional.
4. How would you refine your assignment in the future?
If I were to do this project again from the start I would maybe spend more time on the planning portion of this project, as I found quite a bit of my information while making my map, as opposed to finding it all beforehand and putting it in some sort of rough draft.
