Webcams was funded by the BECTA ICT subject fund.
The project uses the 'local solutions' approach to curriculum development through CPD. This involves recruiting a team of dynamic teachers, from a range of schools. The team came together at a creative planning meeting each school wrote an action plan. Back in school, action research takes place, with the plan worked upon and reviewed with the support of the team.
The outcome is CPD for the teachers involved and curriculum development, shared with the wider geography education community through the GA website, conference and journals.
The teacher researchers involved in the project are committed, geography teacher 'activists' and will continue innovating with webcams and contributing findings of their classroom research on this project area. |
