TEACHING LARGE CLASSES IN GEOGRAPHY - SOME PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS

Geographers from a variety of institutions in the UK set out brief practical accounts of successful attempts to hold onto quality while teaching larger classes and more students. An introduction sets these accounts in the context of change in the British higher education system and suggests their relevance to other geographers in mass education systems who are long accustomed to teaching large classes. The accounts are then presented using a common format and set of subheadings.
