Quality Geography

Picture the scene...
You have a group of students sat expectantly in front of you. They have just arrived in the classroom, and have settled down. Perhaps there was a piece of music or video playing as they arrived - maybe there were materials waiting on the desk for them.

The activities that you have provided will determine how the next hour of those students' geographical experience develops. It may be the turning point when they finally 'get' geography, or produce a piece of work they will be proud of and remember for some time, or perhaps it's the final straw for their relationship with geography...

How do you know that they are:

a) enjoying their geography

and

b) achieving in geography

What evidence could you gather for this ?

These are questions that need to be tackled in schools which are applying for the Primary and Secondary Geography Quality Marks.
We discussed this area recently, but what are your views ?
