There are still 178 hikers at Ranu Kumbolo on the northern side of Mount Semeru's peak during its eruption. #Indonesia Many hikers remain safe at this location, as the northern trail is less affected by pyroclastic flows. Authorities continue evacuation efforts amid ongoing

GIS doesn’t have to mean complex software. Geography teachers already use more GIS than they realise. In my new post I show how to build from what you already do, make geospatial thinking routine, and plan a progression from viewing, to analysing, to creating. Link below 👇

I'm honoured to be working with Clare & Tim on the NI Curriculum Taskforce Advisory Committee, overseeing the implementation of the new curriculum. It's great to have folks with such wisdom assisting us in framing our curriculum reform here in a way that will be most impactful.
‘If you don’t have a curriculum, your assessment framework becomes your curriculum.’ @ClareSealy quoting Tim Oates #rEDCam25

An interesting thing has happened. I've been systematically unfollowing any and all non-education accounts I'd followed on here over the years. And it turns out that my timeline actually has some teachers' accounts appearing again. And I've had some chats like the old days.

#HowIUsedGISToday Waiting for an Amazon delivery, tracking its arrival using...??? GIS! We use GIS in our lives most days. Let's not turn it into A Big Thing in our classrooms, thinking we need high level skills to start. Start where you're at with simple substitution.

Can you solve this high-level Plate Tectonics challenge? I asked my pupils to explain why one subducting plate plunges steeply and the other stays shallow. It all comes down to age and density! Explore the answer using GIS data. https://t.co/16E11Bn7ut

#GeographyTeacher I'm drafting a writing support for Geography pupils that moves beyond the potentially restrictive PEAL formula. I'd love feedback on this. I tried to keep it at a manageable 5. But have I left any key ones out?

Excellent day at the @Education_NI TransformED Conference today. I enjoyed being able to share about "What is the value of a knowledge rich curriculum?". I explored how geography's disciplinary knowledge empowers deep geographical understanding.

Very pleased to be presenting at the @Education_NI TransformED conference next Monday, exploring the value of knowledge rich. I'll use a geography lens to discuss how foundational knowledge can flow together like tributaries to create meaningful & ambitious learning for students.
