Creative Fieldwork 2

Looking for fresh and inspiring ideas for geography fieldwork?

Fieldwork is an essential component of a high-quality geography education. It also offers the opportunity for students to develop teamwork, communication and social skills, as well as improving wellbeing. Creative Fieldwork 2 features practical examples of creative fieldwork techniques to inspire and challenge your students. There are 15 innovative ideas, both physical and human, grouped into three broad themes:

• Urban design
• Green space and local ecosystems
• Public art and street art

These creative fieldwork approaches engage students with questions that they think are important and worthwhile, often in their local area where they live and go to school. Suitable in particular for GCSE and A level, the techniques used can also be adapted for KS3 and primary.

Creative Fieldwork 2 was produced by the Field Studies Council in partnership with the Geographical Association and Newcastle University.
