The National Geographic Society giant map of Asia will transform school gyms around Alaska into geographic learning labs for the next few weeks. The 31 by 41-foot cartographically accurate map allows children to learn geography in a unique, “feet-on” style. The children remove their shoes and follow UA Geography Program Education and Outreach Coordinator Katie Kennedy through fun explorations of the countries, capitals, and cultures of Asia.
