Geography and all that Jazz

Well done to Tom Biebrach for winning a national award for his connections with a school in Kabundi in Zambia. He has BLOGGED about this - some very useful IMAGES and VIDEOS. Read the article HERE. Judges were struck by students’ comments that following the project they could now see the relevance and importance of studying geography. “You have to be able to experience things,” said Mr Biebrach. “You can’t study the weather only by looking at a book. Our students have been able to study issues about Africa by speaking to children there.” Well done to Tom and all involved in the project.

Just browsing Tom Biebrach's Pencoed Geography site, and came across this little Earthquake widget which you can get by clicking the link through to myeqwatch: Earthquake Watch.
