Business Management courses in the Bachelors of Supervision and Management and Business Administration programs in Florida State College at Jacksonville (FSCJ) require final team projects. Students in International Business Management, Strategic Management, and Information Systems courses have to create a fictitious consulting company and produce a business intelligence report for a presentation for a fictitious customer. The objective of the report is to explore new international markets and evaluate the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and treats for a technology company with interests in opening operations in a selected country. Each course has common and specific requirements. Students have to assemble their final presentations using ArcGIS StoryMaps. This is an immersive presentation tool that combines stories, text, interactive maps, and other multimedia content. Once a StoryMap is created and shared, it allows the professor to provide immediate feedback to improve contents and styles. Final StoryMap can be published and shared with other courses, organizations, or everyone around the world. This report summarizes their initial uses in FSCJ courses in both programs and the results to continue applying this technological tool to support and improve presentations of team projects.

The Global Story Maps Campus is an initiative created by Dr. Jose G. Lepervanche Valencia to use ArcGIS StoryMaps and showcase Global Learning Maps used in courses of Management, Information Systems, and Cultural Tourism. Story Maps are in English, Spanish, or bilingual depending of the intended learners. Some of the Story Maps are converted to short animated videos.
