Mobile Technology in Management of Field–Based Learning in Geography: An Analysis of NIEmGeo

Dr Kalyani Chatterjea

Abstract :

Field–based research in any field–based discipline involves recording of huge datasets, multiple researchers. There is a need for an integrated platform that allows seamless data recording and post–field data analysis, using contextrich and spatially–coded data. This research analyses the operations of a mobile application, NIEmGeo, that integrates field–based data recording and integrates post–field quantitative analysis and spatial mapping on one single platform. The application has been used by more than 2000 students for field–based research so far, allowing opportunities to teachers to venture out with large numbers of students, otherwise impossible.
