Abstract

With specific reference to Spatially Speaking 2006-7 four key CPD themes have emerged from this evaluation process:  Teachers really do benefit from being given time to think and apply their professional skills to creative, collaborative curriculum development  Developing CPD based around a technology such as GIS requires rigorous planning for training opportunities and sustained technical support for teachers in their own schools  ‘ Cutting edge’ development of teaching and learning (in geography) with GIS is more likely to occur when more experienced users are given the opportunity to experience ‘quality time’ working together at this level  There is now a renewed need and a clear CPD opportunity to ‘pin down’ the nature of Spatially Speaking as an action research project with clear research expectations and research outcomes for 2007-8
