Episode #57: David Lambert - Thinking geographically and making powerful knowledge relevant

In the first episode of Series 10, John catches up with David Lambert, Honorary Professor of Geography Education at the UCL Institute of Education and former GA Chief Executive. They look back together at the recent history of the GA, and key concepts which helped to build its manifesto for geography: A Different View. Their discussion looks closely at what it means to "think geographically" and why it is important for teachers to understand and get to know who they are teaching and how they see the world.
