Appropriate technology- SU 27-30

Monday, August 9th, 2010

Continuing with the development work, came across the work of Solar Cookers International today, so I’ve decided to use it as a case study of appropriate technology, focusing on Kenya.

I’ve produced this PowerPoint, an information sheet, student sheet and a case study summary.

Introduction to Trade- SU 24-25

Saturday, August 7th, 2010

Continuing the to produce development resources, a brief introduction to trade PowerPoint.

Coca-Cola- MNC- SU 21-23

Friday, August 6th, 2010

Continuing with the development preparation. Currently at this part in the specification.

Know and understand how globalisation both helps and hinders development with reference to one case study from an LEDC or NIC.

So I’ve decided to look at globalisation through Coca-Cola and its activities in India, also gave me a chance to adapt some old pilot work.

I’m also going to use the Mark Thomas Dispatches documentary on Coca-Cola, his follow-up book ‘Belching Out the Devil’ has several chapters related to India, worth a read.

I’ve created the PowerPoint above, an associated worksheet and a classification exercise.

CCEA Weather and Climate- a start…

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

Another job for the holiday is putting together a scheme for the CCEA GCSE weather and climate unit, I’ll be drawing on some of the Key Stage 3 resources I use already, but I’ve started a new GCSE page on RG. First resource is a picture and description match-up exercise on the sources of weather data- ok, I’m not that inspired yet.

As always I’m happy to share resources and ideas.
