SUMMARY:ONLINE: Data Skills - Introduction to GIS using ArcGIS Online
DESCRIPTION:ArcGIS is a Geographic Information System (GIS); a software program for working with maps and geographic data. A GIS allows you to work with any data that you know a location for (e.g.\, addresses\, latitude/longitude\, census locations\, name of a place\, etc.). ArcGIS Online can be used in your browser on any computer and is available to the University community by requesting an account. ArcGIS Online has less mapping capability than ArcMap but is easier to use and to learn. Please note that ArcGIS Online is not recommended if you want to save or download your finished map for publication as it is intended for creating online maps. We’ll learn some GIS fundamentals and how to get started using ArcGIS Online. \nIn this workshop we will learn how to navigate ArcGIS Online\, kinds of GIS data\, how to add data to a map\, basic symbology and labelling\, how to manually add data to your map\, and how to access analysis functions. \nPLEASE NOTE: \nWhen you register for this workshop you are committing to attend the entire workshop unless otherwise confirmed with the instructor. This workshop is limited to 12 attendees. If you are suddenly not able to attend\, please contact us as soon as possible so that we can offer your spot to someone on our waiting list. \nYou must attend this workshop on a computer (not a mobile device). We cannot troubleshoot software during the session. You will find you are able to participate more fully if you have a second screen on your computer. \nPlease note: this workshop will take place online via Zoom. A reminder email with the meeting link will be emailed to you 24 hours before the workshop.

DESCRIPTION:Stories Spark Change – Roxane Gay in Conversation with Eternity Martis: A discussion of survivorship and healing from sexual violence \nJoin internationally renowned author Roxane Gay and best-selling author Eternity Martis for an in-depth conversation about how we can address how we police ourselves as survivors to reclaim our story and push back against shame to create space for healing. As survivors\, we may internalize the lie that our pleasure\, needs and healing are too much of a burden.

This night will be a celebration of healing\, self-love and pleasure. \nRegister online. \nStories Spark Change Organizing Committee: Ryerson University\, Laurier University\, Carleton University\, Queen’s University\, McMaster University\, University of Guelph\, University of Windsor\, University of Toronto\, York University. \nStories Spark Change is part of Consent Action Week\, an educational initiative held during the last week of January at universities across Ontario. The week is an opportunity for campus communities to create a dialogue about consent\, pleasure\, relationships and increase understanding of sexual violence. It’s also an opportunity to raise awareness of both on and off-campus services. The Ontario University Sexual Violence Network created Consent Action Week 2018. \nContent note: this is a conversation about healing and will not be about the harm that occurred.

SUMMARY:ONLINE: Arboretum Workshop - Virtual Constellation “Walk”
DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Trevor Chandler \nLearning the night sky is like getting to know a new neighborhood. At first\, it may seem big and confusing\, but as you strike out and become more and more familiar with prominent landmarks\, the day comes when you realize that the neighborhood is no longer new. It’s home. \nJoin us for monthly sessions as we get to know the night sky a little better. Participants will be introduced to prominent stars and constellations\, where to look for them and how the motions of planet Earth cause them to appear to shift from hour to hour and month to month. You will receive a downloadable star map to help you make your way through the stars. We’ll learn a half dozen or so constellations every month and you will be invited to discuss your observations with the group as we each get to know the neighborhood a little better. \nFee: $10 (plus HST) per person\, per session (evening) \nLearn more online.
