Geolocations of Landmarks. Biarritz Solar Clock. #GeoLandmarks

After the experience geolocating more than 200 European Jewish Quarters, we have expanded to geolocate other landmarks in Google Maps and other digital maps (Bing, Open Street, Facebook Maps, etc). We are discovering cultural and historic places that are not geolocated, as well other landmarks of interest. This is just one example of a new landmark we geolocated in Google Maps.

Solar Clock next to the lighthouse. Biarritz, France.

Google Maps geolocation

#Geolandmarks_Biarritz. We went to see the lighthouse of Biarritz and discovered this Solar Clock. We geolocated it in #GoogleMaps. It is very accurate even in cloudy days if you know where the sun is. The views of the cliffs and the coast of #Biarritz are amazing from this point. #Geolandmarks #LighthousesWeKnow #abuelosmochileros_biarritz #abuelosmochileros_lighthouses

Cities use companies to provide water services to their citizens. Waste water is treated in facilities like this one. This case includes releasing treated water to a local rivers. Automated Systems and a few employees control all stages from a control room. #ManagementInformationSystems #WasteWaterManagement #GlobalLearningMaps #InternationalBusinessManagement #CityManagement #SustainableDevelopmentGoals

As we study this topic, it is important to explore how other cities and local governments treat their waste water and how emerging Information Systems are supporting these processes. Let’s compare and contrast how well our local city is doing it when we explore other worldwide cities. #CityManagement #WasteWaterManagement #InformationSystems #GeographicInformationSystems #OutdoorsLearning

I Have Video Conferences Fatigue / #MoreOutdoorsLessScreens

Less presentations and more conversations have always been one of our best practices during Live virtual meetings. Shorten lectures and long sequence of slides to allow participants to engage and actively participate sharing their own knowledge and practices.

Outdoors University Center

Less presentations and more conversations have always been one of our best practices during Live virtual meetings. Shorten lectures and long sequence of slides to allow participants to engage and actively participate sharing their own knowledge and practices.

This is why we encourage more #VirtualConversations and less looong lectures. Another practice is to encourage #HybridLearning and #OutdoorsLearning. If possible, encourage students to do field trips to local companies, organizations, landmarks, etc. to #BeOutsideTheClassroom and minimize #SynchronicLearning by adding more #AsynchronicLearning to our courses.

Read this article by #MITSloanManagementReview and get ideas to improve your #VirtualMeetings and #VirtualCourses. #MoreConversationsLessPresentations#MoreOutdoorsLessScreens#DrLepervancheCampus#OutdoorsUniversity.
