As one student put it, this video on population is the best thing that they ever saw in their education to date. Funny, clever, thought provoking and turning a lot of conventionally held views on their head.

An excellent video on religion and birth rates that challenges some commonly held beliefs about the population of the world and how it will develop over the next 40 years.

    Technology has been widely adopted in schools but the provision of teaching resources available to make full use of these resources has failed to keep up. We aim to create a wide range of teaching materials that support the teaching and learning of geography in the classrooms with the use of technology.
