What is Geography Teaching, Now?

Catherine Owen (Author) During her 30 year career, Catherine has been privileged to remain a classroom practitioner while also being involved in writing and presenting, supporting a group of schools in Uganda in developing their practice and working with both geography subject associations on a range of projects. Long may this continue!Jennifer Monk (Author) Jen is currently head of geography at a school in the north-west of England but has previously been a lead practitioner for humanities. In 2019 she won the Royal Geographical Society award for Excellence in Geography Teaching. She is passionate about supporting others, which led to the co-creation of @GeogChat.

Jen and Catherine have done an incredible job of pulling together the collected wisdom of dozens of geography teachers and others working in geography education. Between them they have managed to not only capture what geography teaching is, but also make a compelling case for what it could be. The book is filled with practical and actionable ideas and concrete examples of brilliant practice that will make geography come to life. I have no doubt that this book will make me a better teacher and a better head of department.
