How do you know what you don’t know? #4
All Geographers
An infographic focused website - many of which are useful in the geography classroom.
A super source of infographics that all geographers should have bookmarked (and be following via their newsletter, RSS or other social feeds). Some of the recent, useful infographics →
IB DP Geographers
Global change → Unit 1: Changing population → Changing populations and places + Challenges and opportunities [plus bits from Food and health and Urban environments]
Mentioned by numerous geography teacher sources in the last couple of weeks. I have finally had the chance to listen to them all. Maybe on the longer side of podcasts that I would set for students to listen to but useful to bring your knowledge up to date and explore all sort of 'possibilities'.

The 'integration of digital technologies into education' blog from Richard Allaway
When not thinking about geography, producing geography resources or (heavens forbid) teaching geography I have my 'ICT Campus Partner' hat on. This role is focused on supporting staff (and therefore their students) with the efficient and effective use of digital technologies in teaching and learning. I write a (roughly) weekly blog at digitaltechnologies.education that others outside of the International School of Geneva may find useful.

I like my gadgets! However I think better with a pen in my hand. Using an Apple pencil with my iPad works well in that I can later find all my various doodles, ideas, etc. After being a sceptic about such things for far too long I recently added a Paperlike screen protector to my iPad. I have to say it really has improved the 'feel' of writing on the iPad.
