Welcome to our new multimedia resource bank for secondary schools, featuring a wealth of teaching videos, worksheets, GIS and teacher CPD.
What is the Digital Hub?
Our vision is to support secondary schools with the return to fieldwork and field trips, as we overcome the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. The FSC’s digital programme provided a vital fieldwork solution for more than 450,000 students and teachers during the pandemic. We have combined the highlights from this virtual field trip multimedia archive with a range of newly created resources to form the Digital Hub.
The Digital Hub is designed to complement our popular FREE teaching resources, which are found here
What does it cover?
You will find accessible, student-friendly resources for all fieldwork topics required for the main exam boards in 14-18 geography and 16-18 biology.
Explore a range of bite-size, captioned videos, presented in the field by our experienced tutors. Download worksheets, in printable and online formats, and browse GIS story maps and CPD resources.
Whether you are looking to introduce your students to a particular field skill, to develop investigative skills or to encourage deeper thinking in experimental design, the virtual fieldwork on the Digital Hub will have the resources you need. Use our videos to help prepare your students for fieldwork, or for reflection and consolidation of learning afterwards.
How do I access the Digital Hub?
FREE one-year subscription, for secondary schools attending an FSC residential course between 17/4/21 – 17/4/22. You will automatically receive subscription details by email, where this offer applies.
