So... my Advanced GIS class is pretty much the capstone class for our GIS program. I'm redoing the final exam from the traditional academic exam to a series of what could well be interview questions. They need to be fairly generic (ie. I have geographers, geologists, economists, biologists, and anthropologists in the class).
Anyone have any good ideas for questions? Assume these students have had 3-4 GIS classes and a remote sensing class or two. Most also took at least one stats class.
Thanks mucho!
Cheers, Bob
What about assigning a capstone GIS project to evaluate student performance? You could draw up requirements and generic interview questions based on those requirements for the GIS project.
Hmmm... that is "sort of" what I'm doing. The trick is that the students do very different projects. So I'm back to more general questions. However, I do like the idea of tying the class project a bit tighter to the final/interview.
Generic questions might include data source and other metadata, use of open data, use of statistics.
