[Geospatial] Reminder: Geospatial/GIS meetup tomorrow, February 11

[Janet Reyes]

Hello everyone,

This is a gentle reminder that our next Geospatial/GIS meetup will be held tomorrow, Tuesday, February 11 from 12:00-12:50 pm.

This meetup will be held on Zoom only. Here's the Zoom information:

https://ucr.zoom.us/j/96457855999?pwd=n9e6LGMuf5y7OtS64NHaevOMJTFJC1.1

Meeting ID: 964 5785 5999
Passcode: 337798

The meetup will be recorded. (Please do not use AI note-taking tools; I'll provide notes and a link to the recording after the meetup.)

Dr. Jalondra A. Davis, Assistant Professor of English, and UCR students Karina Jones, Bobbi Mandour, Lidia Monsivais, and Deonna Pope will give a presentation on "Trusting Student Leaders, Supporting Community Institutions, Collaboratively Building a Storymap with ArcGIS in a Public Humanities Course."

Dr. Davis and the Project Lead Team of students in her Spring 2024 Introduction to Public Humanities Class will present the StoryMap of Riverside and Inland Empire public humanities institutions<https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/527df9bbd02141ff8721aaf96790a149> that the class collaboratively built. Dr. Davis will focus on how she conceived and designed the course to center and divide responsibility among students and facilitate healthy collaboration, joint decision-making, labor division, and accountability. The students will present the StoryMap, discuss their work process, and reflect on the experience of managing and collecting data from their colleagues and actually building out the StoryMap, including the learning curve, surprises, and challenges that arose along the way.

Jalondra A. Davis is a Black feminist artist/intellectual working at the intersections of Black Studies, Women's and Gender Studies, and contemporary genre fictions and popular culture. She has work on Black speculative fiction and culture published in the Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts, Shima Journal, the Museum of Science Fiction Journal of Science Fiction, and forthcoming in the Routledge Anthology of Co-Futurisms. Her monograph in progress, Merfolk and Black Being in Water is about Black mermaids.
