Please set up a standardized format of files on your memory stick. All students’ memory sticks will have the same general file structure. It's okay to have some variation, but try to follow the logic of this structure.

SUB DIRECTORY – FILE FOLDER

FILES: (here's where there will be some differences in file names... )

The chapter consists of a cover sheet followed by maps.
ATTACHED is the COVER SHEET TEMPLATE that becomes your file “A01a-Location-CoverPage” LINK
NOTE: you can go as wild as you want beyond what is expected. At minimum … complete the cover page. For full credit, add brief explanations or descriptions to your maps (as my example shows LINK). At maximum… who knows? Link to the universe!
SAVE YOUR WORK TO YOUR COMPUTER OR YOUR OWN MEMORY STICK OR YOUR OWN FILES>
Files should be able to be opened by standard software, meaning JPG format or PDF.
(a) the COVER PAGE. Link to cover page as htm format. Link to cover page as .doc format.
(b) at least five maps that show location... going from global to regional, to local scale. :
LocationOnEarth
LocationOnNorthAmerica
LocationInConterminousUSA
Location-GoogleEarth --- that shows the campus or buildings
Location-GoogleMaps --- that shows street locations
FOR AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT IS EXPECTED... :
Depending on your skill with GoogleEarth or other sources of maps.... I expect this homework assignment to take 2 - 4 hours. If it takes longer than that, please let me know... and come to office hours... or make an appointment for a different time.
