Publisher's Synopsis
BBC Educational Publishing, a division of BBC Education, produces a range of materials which relate to School Broadcasting on television and radio. Some, such as Teacher's Notes and Workbooks, relate to specific series and programmes. Video and audio materials obviously make a complete package in themselves.;Developing and extending some of the ideas contained in BBC School Television's "The Geography Programme", this video on mapping differs from the programmes in that it includes more detailed and extended sequences, related more specifically to the Attainment Targets for Geography. Examples of this include the use of six-figure grid references; interpretation of relief maps; the use of satellite images to identify patterns in physical and human geography; and identification of features on aerial photographs, and comparison with large-scale maps.;The video includes a substantial project-map resource file containing map extracts, air photographs, satellite imagery, statistical information and features on map skills, physical geography, and human and environmental issues. This information relates specifically to the Ordnance Survey Project Map for the Port Talbot area, which is also included.
