A cross-posting from my relatively new blog: 'At the Home of Geography'.
This is a blog to share work around my work as Vice President:Education of the Royal Geographical Society.
The GA's Fieldwork Festival during June has ended, but fieldwork can carry on at any time of course, and we hope that your summer travels may well involve some 'fieldtrips' AKA family holidays, or personal travels. These may be in the local area or further afield.
One issue for teachers when consultations take place is to have ideas for fieldwork which are low cost (ideally free) and can be carried out in the local area. In terms of having ideas for fieldwork. The sharing of ideas in this area are particularly helpful.
The RGS has added a useful form to their website.The form can be used to tell us about the fieldwork that you are undertaking, and help share examples of free resources.
Have you got fieldwork resources that other teachers might find useful?
These might be resources for fieldwork in a specific location or for fieldwork activities that could be carried out anywhere.
Select the fieldwork location and upload any accompanying materials to share.
