Last Year's Work Below


 * 2015/2016 Geography Project**


 * Geography Projects Due on Monday 9 November. **

1) If you are having any difficulty email me. I should be online most of the weekend.

2) Do not get any help with your projects. No parental assistance. No tutor assistance. This causes a big difficulty and is easy to detect. If detected I am obliged to advise your Public School and mark your project down heavily.

3) If your project is not adequate when I mark it, I will have you work on areas that need attention before it is submitted. So long as you are prepared to follow advice at this point you should not be left with a poor project.

 * Very Useful Google Map Map**

You might find this map very useful including for calculating the distance along the river.

https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=zTeRsONrsYh4.kONEV5H8D7vQ

It looks like this, but you can move it around and measure distances etc. You can also view it as a map rather than as an aerial photograph.



Site 1 is 654m from the source Site 2 is 1020m from the source Site 3 is 7330m from the source Site 4 is 11090m from the source



The distances can be measured using Google Maps.

CAUTION When you measured the speed of the rivers, with the hydrofloat you measured seconds per 5 metres. This is NOT the velocity. To get the velocity you need to do the following equation.

Velocity = Distance / Time

So if your distance was 5m and the time was 36 seconds you need to do the following calculation:

Velocity = 5m / 36second

= 0.134m/s

When you used the hydroprop you also measured seconds. To convert these seconds to velocity you need to use the following table.



Here is a checklist for doing your Data Analysis

 * Enquiries need to be entirely a boy's own work. Work produced that is not a boy's own work is obvious and is marked accordingly. Enquiries are marked by me and Heads of Geography at a candidate's public school, to whom they are sent. (Boys will get projects back next year in their geography lessons). Enquiries are worth 20% of the Geography CE grade. They are not formally assessed for Scholarship candidates, although public schools do like to see them.**

 * Here's the coordinate for the river's source**

Here is a link to the Google Maps version of the map:

 * Download the following KMZ file and open the file. So long as you have Google Earth you will see all the locations and you can measure the distances between sites by using Tools>Ruler>Path. You can then make a path along the river course so you can measure distances.**

 * If you use Google Earth like this, it should be written in your methodology or in your data analysis. Show the marker what tools you used, and this, is another tool. **


 * There is a good Ordnance survey map of the river on Bing.**
