Welcome!

Why hello there and welcome to my Geography blog. I'm an A-level student from Somerset studying Environmental Science, Geography and Archaeology. I should probably explain how this blog has come about. During my first lesson of the new year my teacher exclaimed that I should start a “What I learnt this week…” blog. I thought this would actually be a good idea to help for revision and “consolidate my learning” which is what the teachers always tell me to do and it might (hopefully) help other people doing geography as well. So this is my geography blog.

There are two of us!

So i am a geography geek and got added so i can blog too. what can i say, i love it absolutely love it! i'm not really that clever (that's a lie she is!) but it doesnt stop a love i have for the subject, i also study environmental science and geology.

My portrait photo should reflect what topic I'm studying at the time. If I remember to change it... If you have any questions or want to talk to us about anything Earth Sciences related please don't hesitate to ask!

Belfast

So to steal a small concept from Cryss

Number of exam results received today: 1
Number of results I was pissed off with: 1
Number of times I punched the wall: 15+

Clearly this blog didn't help me as much as I would have liked for the Belfast exam however the purpose of the blog wasn't purely to help me get higher grades but to hopefully help other people understand. So what I'd like to know is whether this blog is worth it, if it actually helps people understand and they find it useful then I'll carry on writing the blog. If people don't find it useful then I don't think there's much point in me carrying it on.

Basically if this blog is helping, speak now. If it's not then it'll probably disappear.

    dont disappear! your blog is doing wonders for students, they just dont like to comment which is a shame, personally i think that your writing skills are improving with this, as well as your own understanding, it is a long held belief that the best way to learn something is to teach it, and your summer exam will go much better if you have a well formed writing style.

    Dont stop! All the staff that have seen this, including some very senior people are very impressed, and you have an excellent source of material you can refer people to for interviews, universities, and future jobs, particularly if you keep writing!

    It's ok I link all the blog posts to my personal facebook account so if anyone comments it's on there.
    When you say all the staff have seen it, it just makes me nervous... I'll carry on the blog because people have actually said that they read it and because it'll be a pretty good revision tool for when we have to start revising for exams. Everything will be under one blog
