Nova Scotia
As part of my Professional Development I was fortunate enough to take part in a visit to Nova Scotia in Canada . Our brief was to focus on Transition within the different key stages. I decided I was also going to use the visit to focus on Literacy in another country and to bring home some useful tips and ideas for my subject. In addition to this I also decided that as a Geography co-ordinator I was going to use this trip to learn about a part of Canada I knew very little about and involve my class in this enquiry learning process. We began by locating Nova Scotia on our class globe, atlas and world map. We looked at weather information on the Internet and various sites for maps and local information, trade and industry. I asked my class to write open letters for pen pals in case I was able to find a school willing to set up a link. Whilst I was there I took many photographs to show what the place, the schools and the children were like. I was very lucky to find a school, Salmon River Elementary School in Truro , that were really keen to set up an email/ pen pal link. I collected newspapers, postcards, money, flags, food and even maple leaves to bring back to give my class a real ‘taste’ of Nova Scotia.

The Nova Scotia Climate "What's the weather going to be like?" "Kind of nasty?" Never a day passes without someone talking about the weather. It seems to enter into everybody's conversation each day and there is a lot to talk about when we are faced with Nova Scotia weather! Nova Scotia is located on Canada's east coast. The sea that surrounds the peninsula of Nova Scotia certainly has an effect on the climate. Climates in other parts of the world are also affected by how near they are to the oceans. Nova Scotia's maritime climate is influenced by the cold air masses coming from the centre of Canada and the warm air masses from the Atlantic Ocean. Nova Scotia's climate, as all climates in the world, is affected by the distance it is located from the Equator and how high above sea level the land is.

This unique, round berry is used for many different recipes like muffins, cakes, puddings, and main dishes, just to name a few. Wild cranberries grow in swamps, open bogs, and wet areas around the shore line throughout Nova Scotia. The cranberry also grows in other areas in North America similar to the habitat that it grows within Nova Scotia. Habitat means the natural residence of a plant or animal. Cranberries are found on low-growing, vine-like stems, or bushes. These stems can grow from one to six feet long. When the berries turn red, this is the time to harvest them. In Nova Scotia, cranberries are harvested in late September and early October.

This study provides an estimate of the value of these activities. By improving our understanding of the role of the ocean in the economy, decision-makers are placed in a stronger position to develop sound policies aimed at protecting the marine environment, supporting sustainable activities and communities, and providing leadership in ocean stewardship. Economic impact is measured using key economic indicators including gross domestic product (GDP), employment and household income. The study begins with a measure of direct impact by activity, and then estimates spinoff impacts using the Nova Scotia Input-Output model. The analysis covers the years 1996 to 2001.

    Geographic variation in health services use in Nova Scotia Paul J Veugelers, Alexandra M Yip and David C Elliott Abstract Key words: compression of morbidity; health policy; health services accessibility; life expectancy; medically underserved area; multilevel analysis; socio-economic factors Introduction Nova Scotia shows geographic variation in the health status of its residents, as evidenced by differences in local life expectancy and primary underlying causes of death in communities across the province. This variation in health may result from differences in age, socio-economic status, lifestyle behaviours such as smoking and diet, and the delivery of appropriate preventive and curative health services. Universal health care coverage has been implemented to ensure delivery of services on the basis of need rather than ability to pay and, in so doing, implicitly recognizes individuals' differential need for health care based on differences in their health status. While differential need for care would be expected to drive differential use of such care, remaining inequities in availability and access to appropriate health services may also contribute to disparities in health and even further augment existing inequities. A socio-economic gradient in health, whereby wealthier, more highly educated individuals and groups experience better health has been widely demonstrated. It has also been shown that, even where health care coverage exists, there are socio-economic disparities in the amount and type of health care used.

    Business Applications of Geographic Information Systems Technology Training
    September 16, 1997 - Media Release Educating and training Nova Scotians in the potential usages of geomatics technology is the purpose of a new customized training program offered by the College of Geographic Sciences Campus of the Nova Scotia Community College. This program entitled "Business Applications of Geographic Information Systems Technology Training" will encourage the large scale use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology in Nova Scotia businesses. A GIS is a computer system which performs operations on spatial data, that is, data which has positional references. They can be used to integrate, manipulate and display a wide range of information to create a picture of an area's geography, environment and socio-economic characteristics. GISs were developed and pioneered in Canada, and are among the most exciting and powerful decision-making tools in the world today. For example, a GIS can be used by a retail operation to locate a new outlet - by quickly and easily assessing feasible locations, customers and competitors, the GIS can save the owner money and make it more profitable in the long range. The campus, a leader in the delivery of hands-on training in the use of geomatics technology, is receiving funding for the project from the federal Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA) and Nova Scotia Economic Development and Tourism Department.

Once his studies are completed, he plans to get involved in business to promote the developing entrepreneurial community in Nova Scotia. Joanna McIntyre is a graduate of Saint Mary's University (1999) with a Bachelor of Arts Degree, majoring in geography. She attended Saint Mary's to acquire a wider background in the physical and human side of geography. Joanna is also a graduate of the Centre of Geographic Sciences (2001), Nova Scotia Community College, with a Diploma in Cartography-Digital Mapping. She is currently continuing her education at the Centre of Geographic Sciences, specializing in Marine Geomatics. In 2000 Joanna was the recipient of a Geomatics Canada Scholarship, along with the Norman L. Nicholson Canadian Cartographic Association Scholarship. When she is not attending school or working, she enjoys mountain biking, hiking, and other recreational activities.
