Thanks for a lovely day of #fieldwork prep @lorrainegae at Long Reef. You have some great ideas for senior #geography field trips for #greatsouthernreef . Getting ready for Term 1 2023. #geographicalfieldwork #fieldworkconnections #ecosystemsatrisk

Fieldwork at school. pH testing the lithosphere. Not all rocks are the same. Students thought about the impacts of concrete in an urban catchment. #fieldwork #geography #fieldworkatschool #inquirylearning #getoutsidetheclassroom https://t.co/brxFeeZX54

An enjoyable day teaching #fieldwork in Alice Springs and making connections with teachers for further opportunities. #fieldworkconnections #Geography #science #education #remotelearning #regionalaustralia

Always be #fieldwork prepared with a pocket sized pH testing kit. Note: universal indicator not soy sauce!! #geographicalfieldwork #fieldworkconnections #education #Geology #Geography

I’m enjoying some time around Alice Springs. Check out my Instagram stories for daily updates. Looking forward to teaching fieldwork at a couple of schools tomorrow! #fieldwork #education #redcentre https://t.co/bcWJuQpJYI

Exciting finds doing #Geography #fieldwork @scotsallsaints Bathurst. Students surprised me with the invertebrates found in leaf litter at their school. Gaining a deeper understanding of the importance of insects as pollinators linking to food security.

Fieldwork site visit. Looking forward to running #Geography #fieldwork with yr9&10 students, starting tomorrow @scotsallsaints Bathurst. Helping students gain a deeper understanding of sustainable biomes investigating leaf litter invertebrates!

Thanks again for the opportunity to teach your geography teachers @SusanCaldis whilst on leave. Great to be back @Macquarie_Uni. Shout out to Helen Laidler from @hillsgrammar for your amazing knowledge of teaching geographical skills and biomes #Geography #geographyteacher

#AGTA22 conference field trip. Lake Pedder and Gordon Dam, Tasmania. The juxtaposition of the historic flooding of a vast ecosystem in the name of ‘clean’ energy. Many things to think about. #Geography #geographyteacher #fieldwork

Feeling very privileged to be able to present Geographical Fieldwork Simplified to a room full of geography teacher and geography royalty at #AGTA Hobart. Hopeful to be able to make an impact in Australian schools. #Geography #geographyteacher #fieldwork

Wednesday is usually a 9 hour teaching day 🫣 Today, 3 of these hours were facilitated around campus by Kathy of @FieldworkConne1 for geog method students☀️🌳🌏 Not only is Kathy an @MQEducation Alumni 👩‍🏫 she graduated today after a 2 year covid delay 👩‍🎓 & it is her birthday 🎉🥳

[FieldworkConnections @FieldworkConne1]

@SusanCaldis @MQEducation Thanks for the opportunity @SusanCaldis such a great class of engaged teachers. Geography is on the way up!

[FieldworkConnections @FieldworkConne1]

Thank you so much for having me @SusanCaldis and @GTANSWACT at the Showcasing STEM in Geography Symposium. I’m hoping everyone got a lot of practical fieldwork ideas from my session to try at school. #fieldwork #geographyteacher #geography #inquirylearning

[FieldworkConnections @FieldworkConne1]

I promise it’s not poo @SusanCaldis! First fieldwork lesson leading up to @GTANSWACT Symposium. Teaching my yr8s (at school) the Ribbon Test for soil texture. Next we link this to runoff from our oval #geographyisSTEM #geographyteacher #fieldwork #geography

[FieldworkConnections @FieldworkConne1]

@GTANSWACT symposium fieldwork prep. Geography…a little bit of science, engineering and maths. Investigating runoff at school. #geographyteacher #STEM #fieldwork #geography

[FieldworkConnections @FieldworkConne1]

So excited to be able to present at this symposium. Fieldwork prep well underway.

[Dr Susan Caldis (she/her) @SusanCaldis]

As President @GTANSWACT I’m delighted to present our upcoming online symposium ‘Showcasing the STEM in geography’. Fabulous presenters @Geocogito @DrHannahPower @annhilluc @NataschaKlocker @Stephen48474730 @coolaustralia @FieldworkConne1 & The Crawford Fund ✨ #geographyteacher
