8  Processes e.g erosion, weathering, LSD  Landforms  Sea level change, climate change and impacts on coasts  Management- hard and soft engineering and flood management UK and International case studies

9  Plate boundaries  Volcanoes and earthquakes- causes, impact and management  Tropical storms and wildfires- causes, impact and management Case study: small scale and a multi hazard area

10  Global systems and global Governance  Changing places  Contemporary Urban environments

11  Globalisation- trade, information systems, unequal power and flows of people  Trading relations between MEDCs and LEDCs  Role of TNCs and impacts  Trade in food or manufacturing  Role of the UN  Role of Antarctica and threats to it

15  You will be carrying out fieldwork related to Rivers during a 2 day residential field course in February

16 You will be given a news story on an issue. In your pair: 1. Summarise the main points 2. Explain the problems/benefits it may lead to

17  What are the issues that could arise due to the UK not being self sufficient in terms of food?  How consumers be affected?  What might be the impacts for farmers? Why is this important?  Why do we need foreign workers?  What are the positives and negatives of having so much farmland abroad?  Why has the pound become weaker since the referendum result?

19 1. Why were the effects so bad? 2. Why has the recovery been slower in the rural areas? 3. Is the compensation money enough? 4. How likely is it that the country will be able to recover?

20 1. Will people use it? 2. Is this the answer to sustainable transport? 3. What alternatives are there?

21 What will be the impacts of this?

22  1/10 of the coastline could retreat by up to 200 metres inland over the next 100 years, with 5% of it likely to move back by an even greater distance( owned by National Trust)

23 Search pgs_geography on twitter and pick an 2 articles related to Geography (or BBC news website) 1. Summarise the main issues outlined 2. What are your opinions on the information? What more should be done? 3. Produce a teaching resource on your findings
