Extractions: Great for incorporating ICT skills in Geography lessons, this website explores weather and storms suggesting activities that make good use of multimedia and the Internet. For example, why not make a weather scrapbook using programs such as PowerPoint, FrontPage and PhotoDraw? There are instructions and suggestions to really make students think about Geography and build their ICT skills in a fun way. This is a small company that gathers, compiles, and makes tornado information available to weather enthusiasts. This website adds a little twist by including myths about tornadoes, tornado oddities, personal experiences, tornado chasing, tornado safety, and tornadoes in the past as well as information about more recent tornadoes. http://hurricane.terrapin.com/

Extractions: site map ... data search When the Weather is Uggianaqtuq: Inuit Observations of Environmental Change Uggianaqtuq (pronounced OOG-gi-a-nak-took ) is a North Baffin Inuktitut word that means to behave unexpectedly, or in an unfamiliar way. From the perspective of many hunters and elders in the Arctic, the weather has been uggianaqtuq in recent years. In this interactive, multi-media CD-ROM, Inuit from two communities in Nunavut, Canada (Baker Lake and Clyde River), share their observations and perspectives on recent environmental changes. The CD-ROM is a pilot project that uses media technology, as opposed to written reports, as an alternative way to document and communicate Inuit observations and knowledge. It is a research product/report for the communities involved, as well as others interested in how Inuit are experiencing environmental change. Maps, text, photos, video and music are integrated to help illustrate the changes Inuit have observed in their environment and the impacts on their livelihoods. The integrated components allow the user to search by topic or the person being interviewed view interview clips in Inuktitut with English interpretations view and print maps about environmental changes drawn by participants view short videos with scenes from the communities view summaries and photos of environmental changes and their impacts to the landscape and community life.

GEES: Taught Courses So there are foundation courses in contemporary human geography and in environmentalprocesses. Q22, weather, climate and Human History, 10 http://www.gees.bham.ac.uk/courses/undergraduate/geography/singlehons.htm
Extractions: BA Geography (L700) / BSc Geography (F800) All our courses in all three years are available to both BA and BSc students. Each year of study will involve you in gaining 120 credits. To be awarded an Honours degree you need 360 credits. Some courses are compulsory, especially in the first year . So there are foundation courses in contemporary human geography and in environmental processes. However, even in the first year there is some choice and you may take 20 credits from course modules outside Geography if you wish. Popular choices for such Modules outside the Main Discipline (MOMDs) include How the Earth Works from Earth Sciences; Urban and Regional Studies; Media and Cultural Studies; and African Studies. Clearly, these courses are related to Geography, but you could also do nuclear physics if you have the appropriate background! In the second year only half your course is compulsory and these courses are all about how to become a reasonably proficient and professional geographer: how to think geographically; how to use statistical data; the problems and possibilities of using different techniques in human and physical geography; and how to devise a research project. The optional modules allow you to begin to determine the sort of geographer you want to become. You can be someone with skills and knowledge in environmental processes and management; or someone developing expertise in physical geography; or you may prefer to find out what makes cities and economies work, or the impact of different forms of social organisation and culture on the way people live. Or you may prefer to keep your options as wide as possible and take course across this broad spectrum. At Birmingham you can do any of these things because we think it important that you are able to build the degree you want.
