Our current IPC unit on Explorers and Adventurers has students learning many things about geography and maps. Yesterday, a member of our school community came and spoke to us about maps and cartography, aspects of maps, the various kinds and how he uses them in his job as a cruise ship captain. It was extremely informative and we learned that electronic maps have many great features that keep passengers safe while travelling.
