POWERPOINTS INTRODUCING COASTS: Introduction to what coasts are; erosion and deposition, and investigating different coastal localities around the UK. COASTAL EROSION: Looks at different physical features caused by wave erosion - arches, caves and coastal stacks, and demonstrates the process of erosion by animated diagrams of how each feature is formed. It also briefly explains how different rock types erode at different rates, and shows a map of the UK, with the main types of rock found in each area. It ends with a series of photographs for the children to look at and identify coastal features. COASTAL DEPOSITION: Investigates the process of longshore drift, with an animated example, and explains the difference between sand and shingle beaches. INVESTIGATING COASTAL ENVIRONMENTS: Gives the children the task of writing a piece about a different coastal location for a holiday brochure. MANAGING THE COASTLINE: Explores how coastal erosion affects humans, and the reasons why we need to protect the coast from erosion. It explains how we protect the coast by building groynes, sea walls, armour, artificial harbours, or how we can just do nothing - giving the advantages and disadvantages of each method of protection. COASTAL DEVELOPMENT: Gives the children the task of being a local resident, a sea angler, a travel company representative, a holidaymaker, or a local government official, and deciding whether a hotel should be built in an unspoilt area of coastline.

This lesson teaches students about how tourism can be managed within a tourist destination. There is a heavy emphasis on the Lake District, students will leave with a detailed understanding of how key factors are managed such as footpath erosion, traffic, environmental damage and issues on Lake Windermere. I used this with a mixed ability year 10 GCSE class studying AQA A Geography (two lessons). The resources are very detailed with a heavy emphasis on independent learning in sections for in depth questioning. This took me two lessons to cover, however it can be cut down to one lesson.
