Water, landforms and people: coasts

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us


The exam board has set the following key questions for this section of the course:

* What is meant by processes of erosion,transport and deposition at the coast?
* How do these processes contribute to the development of distinctive coastal landforms?
* What coastal landforms are produced?
* In what ways do these natural processes and the coastal landforms they produce affect human activity?
* In what ways does human activity affect the natural processes and coastal landforms?
* What conflicts arise from the management of coastal processes and landforms?
* How and why do these conflicts arise?
* How can conflicting interests be managed to minimise negative effects and maximise the positive effects of human activity on coastal processes and landforms?

Here is the topic overview sheet which you were given in the lesson.

If you want your kids to get some help in their Geography lessons, well, this blog is it! I'm bookmarking this for Allen. I'm sure this will be a great help for him.
