Explore SW teaching ideas
Welcome
On this page we will be publishing ideas and suggestions for using the Explore SW interactive GIS platform in your everyday teaching.
GIS should be embedded in the geography curriculum at all levels; it offers a huge range of exciting opportunities for investigation and discovery and plays a huge part in all of our lives. Explore SW is an exclusive platform with its accompanying data sets available only on geography southwest. With a range of physical and human 'layers' there are an enormous range of possible classroom applications.
If you (or your students) have used Explore SW, please share with us what you have done by contacting us at gswinfo@geographysouthwest.co.uk
