Geography and ICT
ICT is of paramount importance to the Geography department. We have regular scheduled access to a resource room, where pupils are able to access geographical websites which include GIS, Google maps, interactive games and geographically linked websites such as Volcano World.
Pupils are encouraged to use a range of websites when researching for their courses. Many of the relevant sites are indicated in their personal Unit Booklets.
Interactive Whiteboards can be found in all geography teaching rooms allowing pupils the chance to learn by interaction. The whiteboards also give a visual element to the subject "A picture paints a thousand words".
Pupils can also access Geographical resources during homework club on a Monday and Wed
nesday night where they have the opportunity to use the IT rooms to complete their individual investigations, research case studies or practice their maps skills via the internet or in the geography area on public.
