write a letter to an older person in your family in which you explain in plain, non-technical language what you learned and how it is important to you (and to them, to your country (United Arab Emirates), etc).

Here are some ideas of topics you could address in your letter (you do not need to discuss them all): What is the spatial data gap? How might it impact the places in the world you know? What is data literacy and what does it have to do with this course? What is data storytelling? What is a story map? How difficult or easy is is it to create and publish data stories? What kinds of skills have you had to learn this semester? How do you feel about the datafication of human space? of human life?

If you would like to include anything (pictures, hand written notes in any language, drawings), feel free, provided that it gets across the point.
