National Teacher's Academy Map

I will admit that I am not the most tech savvy person, so I looked at other people's examples for this map project to help steer me in the right direction. After viewing some of the examples on our TIE blog page, i attempted and failed using Google maps, thanks to Nicole I used mapscore.com I searched for areas around NTA and found that the area is rated fairly well as having local resources within walking distance to the school. I chose NTA because of its proximity to Chinatown, and wanted to see if there were a significant amount of other historical landmarks nearby. The area is rated as a very walkable neighborhood and I thought it was very important that there were a significant amount of Child Care facilities, as well as parks and other educational institutions.
