On demand videos
Aimed at GCSE and A-Level students, University of Chester Geobites talks are designed to provide case studies and examples that map onto current studies to enrich learning. Each session is presented by a member of academic staff from the Department of Geography and Environment, and draws on their own teaching and research.
Their Geography Kitchen Sessions were designed and delivered during the Pandemic to give school pupils the chance to find out more about a particular area of Geography and experience first-hand what online learning could look like.
