Via Artemis II.

#353: Seek App

The Seek App was mentioned by Alastair Humphreys in his recent book 'Home' where he explores his local area for a year, rather than looking to go further afield. 

Ordnance Survey sell customised OS maps for areas as well - centred on a particular place - I have one for our own home which I won in a competition, and also one for the geography department centred on the school.

Seek is an app which allows you to learn about the nature all around you. Available for iOS and Android.

This is worth a look for those who are starting to think about preparing for some fieldwork as well, perhaps around the GA's National Fieldwork Festival next year - it's never too early to start planning fieldwork. 

#180: Cynefin

The Geographical Association has produced a very useful resource for those who may want to explore the concept of Cynefin.

It's one of the resources created by the GA's Welsh Special Interest Group.

The idea of cynefin connects with themes of home, or 'habitat'.

Natural History in its various forms is likely to explore different habitats.

How much is the natural landscape around where we live a part of this cynefin? If something in it changes dramatically, our sense of 'home' is likely to be affected.
