LA River - Student Maps
Rosa's Map
In the process of discovering their neighborhoods, students are asked to draw a map of the places that are meaningful to them. This subjective experience results in a personal map that reflects students' experience and memory of their communities. These maps are not supposed to be geographically accurate, but more represent the students' mental landscape of where they live.
