SUMMARY:ONLINE: Data Skills - Introduction to GIS Using ArcMap
DESCRIPTION:ArcGIS is a Geographic Information System (GIS): a software program for working with maps and geographic data. ArcMap is the desktop mapping software of ArcGIS. A GIS allows you to work with any data that you know a location for (e.g.\, addresses\, latitude/longitude\, census locations\, name of a place\, etc.). ArcMap is available for download to the University community. Although similar in some ways to online mapping sites\, ArcGIS has greater analytical capabilities and allows you more input and control over your map. \nIn this workshop we will learn how to navigate ArcMap\, kinds of GIS data\, how to add data to a map\, basic symbology and labelling\, how to filter data\, and how to create a finished map. \nWhen you register for this workshop you are committing to attend the entire workshop unless you confirm otherwise with the instructor. If you are suddenly not able to attend\, please contact us as soon as possible so that we can offer your spot to someone on our waiting list. \nYou must have ArcGIS installed on your computer prior to the workshop. You will not have time during the session to install the software. You must attend this workshop on a computer (not a mobile device).

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Pronunciation Group Online - Dialogues and Expressions
DESCRIPTION:This program is aimed at undergraduate and graduate students\, post-doctoral students\, visiting scholars/researchers\, staff and faculty with English as an additional language who would like to practice their English pronunciation and improve their communication skills for speaking English in everyday situations. Discussion of context-specific vocabulary and idioms will allow participants to create dialogues which will then be reviewed as a group for appropriate language\, pronunciation and sentence stress. Participants will then practice the dialogues in class and have access to them at home for further practice. \nAlthough it would benefit students to have participated in one or more of the other Pronunciation Groups (Sounds\, Words or Sentences) offered in the Fall and Winter semesters\, it is not a requirement.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Data Skills - Intro to GIS Part 2 - Data Analysis and Visualization
DESCRIPTION:ArcGIS is a Geographic Information System (GIS): a software program for working with maps and geographic data. A GIS allows you to work with any data that you know a location for (e.g.\, addresses\, latitude / longitude\, census locations\, name of a place\, etc.). ArcGIS is available on all the Library computers\, also by download to the University community. Although similar in some ways to online mapping sites\, ArcGIS has greater analytical capabilities and allows you more input and control over your map. In this workshop we’ll learn further GIS tools\, work with tables\, and begin working with raster data. \nYou must have ArcGIS installed on your computer prior to the workshop. You will not have time during the session to install the software. You must attend this workshop on a computer (not a mobile device).
