Human and Physical Coastal Erosion
Welcome to this Teachnet UK resource contributed by Diana Pompei
a Geography teacher at Dartford Technology College, Kent
This resource is delivered
primarily through PowerPoint and has links to a variety of student
activities and relevant websites. It includes many photographs and
diagrams produced by the author.
The resource is aimed primarily at key stage 4 but may also be helpful at other key stages. It is designed to aid
the teaching of human and physical coastal Geography and costal
management. Aspects of the OCR syllabus C can be taught using this
resource and it is hoped that it is flexible enough to deliver
aspects of other syllabi. Many topics are covered and some are not
covered in detail. These can of course be taught using other
resources.
The resource
contains learning objectives, definitions descriptions of landforms
and processes and activities which could be used over approximately
5 lessons. These lessons could stand alone and students could work
through them with little or no additional input, or be used as preparation for coastal field work. It is based on
the North Kent coast at Reculver and Herne Bay. The place specific
information could be used as a case study in its own right and the
resource could be used as an example of a how to put a case study
together. All the place specific resources and activities can be
replicated for another case study or could be used as a comparison.
Some of the activities are designed to develop geographical skills
such as observation, sketching and labelling.
