Noel Jenkins
Noel Jenkins, UK, Secondary, Geography
I'm a so-called Advanced Skills Teacher, working in the South West of England. I teach in an 11-16 comprehensive school in Somerset. I'm a Geographer with a particular interest in new and emerging technologies.
I tend to evangelise on the use of Google products in the classroom, and much of my development work centres around neo-geography, and the idea that school geography can and should influence the wider community (participatory / public geography).
I provide INSET for schools, LEAs and various training companies and act in a consultancy role for the BBC and other organisations. I also write for a number of publishers and my professional bodies. In my spare time I'm a rock climber and surfer. Music art and photography strongly influence my work as a teacher.
My website juicy geography contains a personal collection of ideas, lessons and resources for school geography at KS3 and KS4. The emphasis is on creativity, ICT and original Google Earth lessons.
