group 3  -  Geographers  Present  to  historians

In Year 12, our IB Historian peers presented a brief history of conflict in the Middle East to help us in our understanding of the developmental and economic settings of the current crisis. The Israeli / Palestinian conflict features regularly during our IB Geography course in both the SL and HL units of work.  Our aim is now to give a series of mini presentations back to our historian friends bringing the situation up to date and using our geography knowledge, skills and understanding to deliver a series of presentations based around our core themes.  

Since our presentations last year, there has been further escalations in violence in the area leading to the 2014 Fifty Day War. See the BBC video to the right hand side to get an update. 

2014 will see five groups, each with two people in presenting one of the following presentations linked to our current scheme of work. 

Each section below contains two videos, three news report links and an image that you must make use of somewhere in your mini presentations. 

presentation  1 - water wars  2014
Protecting   israel's   interests   or   a   stranglehold   on   Gaza? 

Freshwater is an optional unit at IB Geography and is studied by our HL students only. This presentation will require that one person in the group is a HL student.

guaranteeing  security  or  grabbing   land? 

Disparities in Wealth & Development is in the core unit of the IB Geography course. As part of this unit we have to study disparities that occur as a result of ethnicity and land ownership. We normally use Zimbabwe as the focus. Here we learn more about the issues in Israel & Palestine
