So I have just bitten on the bullet. I hope to use this blog to maintain contact with students whilst they are working on projects outside Swansea, to discuss issues that arise in connection with field courses (and other types of teaching) and to look at current issues found in the media that relate to conservation of animals and plants. In the last-mentioned case, I might well explore some of the likely responses to images that are used to elicit student debate on these issues.
This blog may help people explore some of the 'hidden' issues involved in certain media treatments of environmental and scientific issues. Using personal digital images, it's also intended to emphasise seasonal (and other) changes in natural history of the Swansea (South Wales) area. The material should help participants in field-based modules and people generally interested in the natural world. The views are wholly those of the author.
