AGTA/GTA NSW Geography Skills Roadshow

The 2017 AGTA/GTANSW Geography Road Show will focus on the tools and skills mandated by the New NSW Geography Syllabus. AGTA, in association with the Geography Teachers Association of NSW (GTA NSW), has developed a professional learning program that guides teachers to a more advanced understanding of the tools and skills central to Geography’s inquiry-based methodology.  This is a hands-on professional learning experience.  Participants will be actively engaged in a series of activities that develop key understandings and competencies.

The program below has been designed into three streams:

• Geography Skills for secondary teachers new to teaching geography – who have little, if any, academic background in the subject.
• Geography Skills for experienced secondary geography teachers – with an increasing focus on using ICT
• Geography Skills specifically designed to meet the needs of Primary teachers.
