It’s always nice to get a mention. Alan Parkinson kindly mentioned a presentation I shared via slideshare.net in this month’s WebWatch section of the GA Magazine. The presentation was titled “60 Slides, 60 Ideas for IB Geography Teachers in 60 Minutes“. I produced the presentation for the workshop I lead of InThinking in February 2009 for experienced IB Geography teachers.
I am running two more workshops for InThinking before the end of the year. In September I am leading a two and a half day workshop, in Berlin, for teachers new to teaching IB Geography. The workshop outline and registration forms can be found here.
In October I am leading a one day workshop, in Central London, titled “ICT for Humanities”. The workshop outline and registration forms can be found here.
