Re: [HOT] HOT OSM in education
Hi Heather, hi all, thanks for linking into the topic! Types of research: - develop toolkits for integrating HOT OSM into Disaster Risk Reduction programs in a standardized way (of course, each DRR program is highly dependent on regional context, culture and environment) - How can we use OSM and HOT humanitarian (geo-)data model to support the collection of Element-at-Risk data - Conduct studies on how HOT model could be integrated better with other VTCs (SBTF, DHN-entities) in terms of volunteer management, activation criteria, interaction during emergencies and post-and pre-emergency situations, data-exchange and collaboratorive work ...These are just preliminary thoughts... :-) Would be more than happy to further discuss that, especially with keeping in mind to integrate HOT OSM and CrisisMapping in general more thoroughly in undergraduata and graduate programs concerned (directly or indirectly) with Disaster Risk Management and Humanitarian Help and mybe also International Development Work. HOT research environment: - share reading lists - google+ hangouts or other ways of exchanging ideas - Organize VTC meetings dedicated to research at conferences (ICCM?) or organize an own conference? - research fund? I also think the potential for HOT in research could be extended when integrating other models of other VTCs and/or organizations (SBTF hat on now ;-) ) Thoughts? Kind regards, Svend-Jonas 2013/5/7 Heather Leson hle...@ushahidi.com HI all, this is sort of on topic. One major item in the HOT Strategy is to encourage more research about HOT. So, in keeping with the education theme: - What types of research should HOT encourage? - If you are a researcher, how can we help you attain your goals? - What would a HOT research ecosystem need?

Re: [HOT] HOT OSM in education (Om Goeckermann)
Great to see this initiative and the push for teaching easy-to-learn skills of geographic interest. I have been working to illustrate how GIS aware display of information is relevant to fields like history, economics, sociology, anthropology, math studies, marketing, business management etc. we all know the list goes on and on. Having a useful map+data display allows insights into the body of existing information that can greatly aid comprehension and lead to significant novel insights. I'd really like to see OSM and complementary data collectors/API's made available for use in educational settings since I believe it will add value to existing curricular materials. Educators can share ideas easier and make concepts more relevant to students. I also feel that a wide range of students across disciplines will be able to make good use of spatial analytics training in their own careers. ___ HOT mailing list HOT@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/hot
Re: [HOT] HOT OSM in education
snip HOT research environment: - share reading lists - google+ hangouts or other ways of exchanging ideas I am very much interested in reading lists and google+ hangouts. With regards to the latter, it would be extremely useful to have a weekly/bi-weekly hangout (the consistency is what's important here) about the technical aspects of the tasks as well as more strategic framings. As a beginner, I want to learn more about how to read satellite imagery -- who/where I can ask when I am unsure of something, and how I know if I'm getting better. I plan to start a google hangout in New York City on some of these topics -- sort of figuring it out as I go along - with the first this Friday. I would love to coordinate with anyone more experienced. Best, Alyssa. - Organize VTC meetings dedicated to research at conferences (ICCM?) or organize an own conference? - research fund?

Re: [HOT] HOT OSM in education
Hi Rafa, Svend-Jonas, I read the HOT list as well. ;-) and only to know ... our students translated during the project the routingservice http://www.openrouteservice.org/ which is provided by the Department of Geography (Chair of GIScience) University of Heidelberg - into SL, TR, RO and PT. Unfortunatley our translations are still not online. :( But I am open for any to share experiences with OSM in the field of education, even in german language. ;-) cheers, y un grande abraco :) M. 2013/5/3 Rafael Avila Coya ravilac...@gmail.com -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi Svend-Jonas: There is an European Commission Long Learning Program Comenius Association of schools from different european countries, working with OSM (secondary school students) for the last 2 years (and probably for the next 2) that might be of your interest. The general coordinator, Manfred A. Reiter is actually from Germany. I will forward this e-mail to him, in case you both want to share experiences with OSM in the field of education. I am myself secondary school teacher, and think that there are many interesting advantages (from the education and human point of view) in involving students and also teachers in HOT activities. It would be a matter of a careful previous training and a good selection of easy/non-complex HOT tasks for editing. Best regards, Rafael Ávila Coya.

Re: [HOT] HOT OSM in education
Great topic! There's growing examples of this. Here in DC, George Washington University includes OSM directly in curriculum. Students get graded on edits! TechChange does online tech training, and they've been introducing osm http://techchange.org/ A high school teacher in Luxemborg partnered with Map Kibera http://www.mapkibera.org/blog/2012/07/01/luxembourg-students-make-maps-for-kibera/ There are plenty more. The core learning materials, http://learnosm.org/, are great, but I haven't seen anything like a best of curriculum, guide for the teachers. That might be a good goal for this growing space of OSM in education. First step might just be sharing and discussing what's been done before. -Mikel * Mikel Maron * +14152835207 @mikel s:mikelmaron From: Rafael Avila Coya ravilac...@gmail.com To: hot@openstreetmap.org Sent: Friday, May 3, 2013 7:28 AM Subject: Re: [HOT] HOT OSM in education -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi Svend-Jonas: There is an European Commission Long Learning Program Comenius Association of schools from different european countries, working with OSM (secondary school students) for the last 2 years (and probably for the next 2) that might be of your interest.

Re: [HOT] HOT OSM in education
One thing that would be nice out of LearnOSM.org is a better looking/formatted print option from the material. In low resource environments, especially, you need printed copies to teach and the default print right now is workable but not great. -Brian On Fri, May 3, 2013 at 11:13 AM, Mikel Maron mikel_ma...@yahoo.com wrote: Great topic!

Re: [HOT] HOT OSM in education
Brian, That is already listed as a feature enhancement in Github. https://github.com/hotosm/learnosm/issues/93 If anyone has other suggestions they are best if logged there so they can be tracked. We can't guarantee we will do them (much of LearnOSM is a volunteer effort), but at least people will know they are requested. -Kate On Fri, May 3, 2013 at 11:37 PM, Brian Wolford worldwidewolf...@gmail.comwrote: One thing that would be nice out of LearnOSM.org is a better looking/formatted print option from the material.
