Dear Colleagues,

PLANET Edition 4, the LTSN-GEES learning and teaching publication, will
be published in early July 2002.  The edition contains many feature
articles including: teaching flood hazard management through role plays,
the optimal use of MS PowerPoint in teaching, a courseware package for
teaching geological field skills, assessing student skill transfer
between years, C&IT and fieldwork, an overview of the new QAA Quality
System, a progress report on the RGS-IBG Geographers into Teaching
project, an update on the LTSN-GEES learning and teaching resource
database, as well as information on LTSN-GEES projects, events and wider
educational developments.  The fourth edition also contains an archive
of all past PLANET contributions for quick reference purposes.

PLANET has a distribution of around 2500 and multiple copies are sent to
all GEES departments as well as many other individuals and educational
bodies, in the UK and overseas.  However, if you would like to be added
to the mailing list to receive your own personal copy, free of charge,
then please contact the editor([log in to unmask]).

If you are interested in submitting an article for publication in a
future edition of PLANET, then please visit the dedicated PLANET
web-pages at: http://www.gees.ac.uk/planet/index.htm for further
details, including guidance for contributors, or contact the editor.

We hope that you find PLANET informative and useful.  

Kind regards,

Steve Gaskin
