City Map

project four: city map

You may work in pairs, teams, or as individuals to complete your research and your work with a community partner organization. Each individual student must turn in their own written work. For this project, you are required to work with a community partner whose mission closely aligns to your research project.

Pre-project phase

Choose a city problem and select a community partner organization that works to solve that problem. Begin your service work before developing a research plan (see iLearn).

Developing a research plan (see sample on iLearn)

Phase 1: Research question

Develop a research question (or more than one) that could be answered through mapping

Bring your ideas for class discussion and instructor approval.

Phase 2: Data

List data you will need to collect to answer this question. This may include locations, numbers, types of actions, etc. See sample research plan on iLearn.

Phase 3: Resources

List resources that could provide data to answer your question (organizations, news accounts, books and articles, websites, etc. Be sure to include relevant course texts.)

Phase 4: Field research

Visit the city sites that can provide answers to your question and record your data.

Phase 5: Map

Create a physical map to present your data. Make sure it is large enough to be clearly seen by everyone in the class during your presentation.

Phase 6: Summary Sheet and Findings (see example and style sheet on iLearn).

a) Create a one-page Summary Sheet (write as list) presenting your:

Research question

Data collected

Resources used

Community partner information (see example on iLearn).

b) Write a one-page explanation of your findings (write as essay)

What did you learn?
