Silver GA Award for 'Reading Our Landscapes' geography resource
The Chris Kington Publishing book Reading Our Landscapes by Charles Rawding has won the Silver GA Award, announced at the Geographical Association's Annual Conference 2008.Reading Our Landscapes: understanding changing geographies beat off tough competition to win the prestigious award, which is given annually to 'recognise material which is likely to make a significant contribution to geography in primary schools, secondary schools or colleges,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and to encourage the creative development of new materials.' In making their decision the judges considered: the significance of the contribution that the material is likely to make to the quality of geographical education in the UK; the quality of the material in terms of: geographical content; design; presentation and/or production; the usefulness and appropriateness of the product in terms of its application in the geography classroom and/or professional development; and the originality of the concept or the approach on which the product is based.Charles Rawding wrote and illustrated the book to show how approaches to the study of landscape – in its broadest sense – can reaffirm the relevance of geography to pupils' everyday lives. The GA Silver Award citation for Reading Our Landscapes:"This book and the accompanying CD-Rom are rich with up-to-date information,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], photographs and other materials that will be a valuable resource to secondary teachers planning different ways to approach the study of landscapes, both in the geography classroom and for out-of-classroom learning. The approach taken is social constructivism – that children learn about the world by making sense of things on the basis of their own previous knowledge. The judges were impressed with the clear, coherent presentation: this will be very accessible to teachers, and will facilitate their adaptation of the approach to geographical learning. The wealth of detailed, appropriate materials are easily used ‘off the shelf’; they could also be adapted to be directly relevant to the localities of individual schools. The activities are engaging and original. Overall,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], this is a package that provides teachers with a modern approach to themes such as settlement; tourism and leisure management; and industrial landscapes, to name just a few."Click here to download pages and to order the book
The exclusionThe head teacher wrote to the parents of R and F telling them that neither R nor F could come back to school, but that they would be given help in completing their course at home. He should, of course, have told the parents immediately, ideally by telephone followed by a letter, of their right to make representations to the governing body.
