Teaching
about Places
Geography helps the development of knowledge
and understanding of places. This can be achieved
when pupils explore their own personal surroundings.
By experiencing different locations pupils
will begin to develop a sense of place, in
other words their relationship to the world
around them.
The
Internet can be used to promote knowledge
and understanding of European patterns and
processes in physical and human terms. There
are many online travel sources and guides
to different places in Europe, the challenge
is how to integrate such resources into
the curriculum and to generate meaningful
activities to promote citizenship. |
