More podcasts

I've just found more free geography podcasts here

(haven't listened to them so don't know how much of our syllabus they cover!)

More podcasts

I've found this site http://lhs.typepad.co.uk/weblog/geography/ which has (free!) podcasts for several topics. It is for the Scottish syllabus but many of the issues covered will be the same.

Exam skills especially for paper 1

This is a really useful page for advice on exam skills for our paper, including some downloadable quick advice sheets on mapwork, using photograph, using graphs etc (all paper 1 stuff!)

Global warming

I found this mindmap about global warming on Flickr. Click on the image to see a bigger version or go to Flickr here to download it in various sizes. There is another mindmap below just about solving global warming. Both very useful!

Solving global warming

I found this mindmap on Flickr all about solving global warming. Click on the image to get a full size version or go to Flickr here where you can download the mindmap in various sizes.

Mapwork

Some hints for the mapwork you might encounter on paper 1. Thanks to Mr Cowan, Geography teacher in Stockton for this.

Podcasts

You can create your own podcasts or there are some available on the internet for some topics that people have created (make sure they are topics we study if you intend to use these!) There is a new site offering podcasts to buy (for all subjects, not just Geography). Have a look at www.gcsepod.co.uk/ . They seem very reasonably priced.
