Hello and introduction


Hello

By way of introduction, I am taking the exciting step of studying a Geography PGCE at Leicester University, starting in September.

This blog will be used by me to develop my knowledge of my ‘weaker subject’ areas. It will, I hope allow me to interact with others in the group.

I completed the Subject Knowledge Audit provided by the course team a week ago. I have found that I need to develop my physical geography subject knowledge more than human geography. I intend to complete the audit again at the beginning of September to see how my knowledge has improved.

I will consider a number subjects in the following order:

Weather and climate

Riparian Environments

Extreme landscapes

Tectonics (general)

Skills; map work, GIS etc


So, I intend to have a bit of fun investigating, creating and learning through the summer. I hope that you do too!
