Teaching the Hard to Teach: ICT in Geography

Have just watched a preview copy of a Teachers TV programme that I was involved in consulting on, so that I could put together the teachers' materials for the website.
The programme is in the HARD TO TEACH strand, and looks at using ICT to teach Geography.

It features several examples of
  • Paul Haigh using virtual fieldwork with Google Earth in Sheffield
  • Helen Young using Data Harvest hand-held data-loggers, and mapping the results of a microclimate study in AEGIS
  • Bob Lang using Google Earth to explore climate change, Gapminder to explore social inequality and Digital Worlds to explore areas of Birmingham..
Many thanks to those involved for taking part in the programmes...
Just producing the related notes and will let you know transmission times when I have them...
