Session description

Join The Henry Ford for a demo of the Innovation Atlas, an interactive mapping tool that identifies the barriers to Innovation in America, across K-12 students and schools. This tool helps prioritize resources, monitor impact, and justifies the need for accessible resources and programs with STEM, STEAM, and Innovation.

Outline

- Introduction and Overview of Innovation Atlas (10 min)
-- Introduction to Data Walks, an interactive way that community and research stakeholders, program administrators, local and regional government officials, and service providers engage and collaborate in dialogue around #Data.
--Leverage GIS (Geospatial Information Systems - a computer system for capturing, storing, assessing, and displaying data related to positions and geography (GPS), enabling people to see, analyze, and understand relationships more easily).

Use Cases & Examples (10 min)
- Invention Education
- Invention Convention Affiliates
- Community Partners

Interactive Activity (30 min)
-This Data Walk activity will seek to answer two questions:
--What data organizations or research projects leverage?
--What data your organization or research project needs?

Following an overview of #Data, attendees (users) will engage with the Innovation Atlas Explorer Hub, an interactive ecosystem of tools developed by The Henry Ford. Based on research objectives, audience(s), school district(s), county(s), and/or regions of interest, attendees will learn and understand how to outline (benchmark) the landscape of what and where inequitable conditions are impacting Innovation, Invention, and Creativity.

Tools will include, but not be limited to, Innovation Atlas (IA) Explorer, IA Geographic National & State Ranking Comparisons, in addition to Open Data Source portals of past and current curated data sets (Census, NCES, Dept. of Ed, Office of Civil Rights-OCR, Research, etc.)
