Disabled access study
This is an idea for enquiry that combines
fieldwork, ICT and citizenship. The activity is based on the work of Rob
Kitchin, whose book "Disability,space and society" is published
by the GA.
The investigation was first carried out on the South Bank, London
with Year 10 students who used the enquiry to prepare for their own GCSE
investigations.
The results of their work can
be seen here. The methods have recently been updated to take advantage
of the newly launched Maps
Direct service.
This study is suitable for any age group, and is a highly
enjoyable, worthwhile and inclusive activity.
