I recently co-lead a three day workshop for Experienced IB Geography Teachers with Natasha Winnard of ibgeog.net, IB Geography 2009-2017 Wiki and OCC fame. We were running the course for InThinking in a hotel in central Paris. We had 26 participants from 9 different countries and the feedback we received was excellent. The main purpose of the workshop was to prepare for the new IB Geography syllabus – teaching of which starts this summer but sharing teaching strategies and new approaches was also a key theme.
For the penultimate session I gave a presentation called ‘60 Slides, 60 Ideas for IB Geography Teachers in 60 Minutes’ as a summary of 60 ideas that teacher could use in the Geography classroom to benefit themselves (by making their lives easier) or to benefit their students. The rationale is not that every participant tries to implement all 60 ideas – I just hope that everybody learnt something new and now has plans to have a go at a couple of ‘new’ things over the next couple of months. I have embedded the presentation below – obviously it’s better when seen ‘live’!
