The document discusses using GIS technology to engage youth in their communities through participatory mapping projects. It provides examples of how GIS data and tools can be incorporated into school curriculum, including suggested mapping projects for 3rd grade students involving local geology, native Americans, and earth materials. The document also outlines three phases for developing a community portal to share user-generated map layers between students, teachers, and community members.
