I had the idea of using a hashtag to try to gather together people's geographical resolutions for things that they were planning to do in 2012....
The hashtag is #nyng
These could relate to a series of areas which are listed below, or indeed another area that falls under the category of 'new geography'...
- Teaching a year group for the first time
- Teaching a GCSE / GCE specification for the first time
- Starting, or hoping to start, a new job in a new school
- Visiting a new part of the country, or visiting a whole new country
- Starting a blog, or 365 project, or a new Twitter or Facebook account for the geography department
Here are a few of my #nyng offerings...
a) Starting a new 365 project - content as yet to be decided...
b) Presenting at BETT for the first time
c) Visiting Switzerland for the first time - to present at an IB Geog conference
Feel free to Tweet with this hashtag or add them to blogposts and we can identify some of the areas that colleagues are planning to develop during 2012, and follow up some of the stories later in the year...
Whether you're a PGCE or NQT colleague, or an experienced teacher, it's important to try new things as often as possible, and to try risky things too...
