Dear Education Update subscribers,
We know the tragedy of the recent earthquake and tsunami in South Asia
has created special challenges in the classroom--and shined an extra
light on the importance of geography education.
To help you teach about this disaster, National Geographic's Education
Network has stocked its Forces of Nature Educator Community with lesson
plans, activities, and informational resources about tsunamis and other
natural disasters.
In addition, we are pleased to present a special online event:
GEOGRAPHY EXPERT ANSWERS YOUR QUESTIONS
Wednesday, January 12, through Friday, January 14
In EdNet's Forces of Nature Community Forum
Dr. Richard Marston (Vice President of the Association of American
Geographers, Sun Chair Professor at Oklahoma State University, and
Co-Editor-in-Chief of Geomorphology) will answer your questions about
tsunamis and the recent tragedy in a threaded discussion board.
Post your questions anytime--starting now--and check back often
Wednesday through Friday for Dr. Marston's answers and others'
responses.
=======================================================
Also in the Forces of Nature Forum:
--HOW ARE YOU TEACHING ABOUT THE TSUNAMI?
Tell us how you are dealing with this event in the classroom. What
challenges has it presented? Opportunities?
--WHAT TEACHING MATERIALS ARE YOU USING AND HOW?
What materials have been most useful to you in the classroom--maps,
videos, news articles? Let us know what works for you.
