Thinking Geography

Filed under: Uncategorized — jdmcd @ 6:11 pm

Would like to recommend  a couple of web sites devoted to developing “thinking” through Geography. The first is on the seminal work by David Leat who has devised a range of exercises intended to develop thinking skills within a geographical context. Click here for link to online exercises developed by teachers in Birmingham.

The second is a stimulating site produced by Dr Andrew Lee, Head of Geography at Westminster Under School. Set up in April 2007, its aim is to provide a source of accessible material to teachers, students and “the inner geographer in all of us.”
