  • GEOGRAPHY Geography

    GEOGRAPHY Geography

    GEOGRAPHY Geography Introductory Notes for Teachers Methods for studying the area will obviously relate to the nature, age and level of study of the students involved. The area can easily cater for a days field study related to many issues and would provide the opportunity to demonstrate many of the fieldwork skills demanded at GCSE and A level as well as studies for younger age groups. For classroom studies the audio-visual clips, mining and quarrying photos on the accompanying CD will help bring the subject to life. Cross Curricular themes with Science and History could be developed e.g. simple biogeographical studies and geological trails across the area (the Discovery Trail route would be a good starting point). Key Stage 2 The Discovery Trail around Halkyn Mountain would be an ideal field visit as part of a geographical study of the local area. Geographical enquiry and skills can be used to study the local area and for studies of contrasting localities. This will enable students to develop a better and fuller understanding of their own local area and community within the wider context of Wales. Possible study themes 1. Identification of ways in which people affect the environment. 2. Investigation of the ways in which the environment is looked after (managed), for its present and future use (conservation and sustainable development). 3. Recognition of the variety of views about changes to the environment e.g. quarrying 4. Understanding of the responsibility of both the individual and organisations in managing the environment. Individuals opinions do matter. Many other ‘environment topics’ could be studied using this area as a ‘case study’ within your ‘Schemes of Work’.

An important principle for our work is to aim to achieve a better democratic balance within each council area so that each vote cast in an election is, so far as reasonably practicable, of the same weight as all others in the council area. The achievement of this aim, along with other measures, would be conducive to effective and convenient local government. At the beginning of this review process we have found some considerable differences between the numbers of voters to councillors not only between council areas in Wales, but also within council areas themselves. The Commission is constrained by a number of things in the way we undertake our work: • The basic “building blocks” for electoral divisions are the community areas into which Wales is divided.
