In an effort to help new geography lecturers and faculty, last
summer's GFDA workshop group decided to build a website to act as a
repository for geography syllabi and teaching resources. As many of
you know, it can be really difficult to put together a course for the
first time. We felt that our lives could be made much easier if we had
access to lots of different geography syllabi and teaching resources -
all conveniently located in one place - to help us shape our courses.
Hence, the GFDA syllabi repository website is born:
http://geography.sdsu.edu/GFDA/index.html
Our hope is that this website will encourage lecturers and faculty to
share ideas and resources across university campuses. We’ve also
created a listserv to facilitate discussion on key classroom
strategies and to share teaching-related announcements. I encourage
you to share your syllabi and teaching resources so that we can make
this website better. The more resources we post, the more we can build
upon each other’s knowledge and experience. Please email resources to
me at: [log in to unmask]
Best wishes,
Kate
