The first in a series of posts aimed at supporting non-specialists with their teaching of Physical Geography went live today on our blog!

Good morning.
New on the website today - a brilliant blog from Fiona Sheriff about using books and stories in your geography curriculum...

Like festivals? Like geography? How about a Festival of Geography?! www.rgs.org/events/upcom...

My new GA blog post focussing on one key aspect of any @gasigict.bsky.social Primary Quality Mark application: the school context statement has just been published ga-blog.org/2025/01/24/t...

#geographyteachers see below link to 'Geography for all our futures'. It sets out some of opportunitues & challenges facing geog as the GA develops our new 2025-30 strategy. & feedback & views welcome on [email protected]

If anyone knows of any geographers (or general humanities teachers) who would be interested in a teaching post until the end of the academic year (Barnstaple) please let me know! 🙏

Finally made the jump to BlueSky, hoping to connect with all the Geoggers again from X. #Geographyteacher

Hello!
Is there anyone there?

Planning some #fieldwork on biodiversity? This free resource pack might give you ideas and save you some time!

Hello all! As a newbie on here, I'm looking to connect with folks who are into geology, geo visualisations and GIS, and especially how they connect with the school classroom.

A visualisation of the flat slab subduction below Peru and how it helps explain the gap in volcanism along the Andes at that location.

1/ When teaching plate tectonics to pupils, it's important to note that they will probably be coming with prior misconceptions about how plates move. So ubiquitous is the mantle convection cells model that that's how pupils will probably think plates move.

But they would be wrong! to think that...

Want to supercharge your geography teaching of collision zones? Check out this graphic showing the main features of the orogeny in the Himalaya.

How does this compare to what we typically teach?

How much more of this detail could our pupils cope with?

Fancy listening to an AI podcast about my two @The_GA Teaching Geography articles updating our understanding of plate tectonics?

Then check out this one I've just generated with NotebookLM!

An infographic on the main hazards associated with volcanic activity, including some information on the hazards that present greatest risk to people.

The source paper for the graph is appliedvolc.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

I read a lot of academic papers about plate tectonics. Many of them assume a prior base knowledge which can make them less accessible for the non-specialist.

This one starts with as good a summary of the various models for plate & mantle dynamics as I've read.
