Where will I live? Place studies

Hello agian...

This is a follow on from yesterdays blog, we have looked at a number of perceptions of place and how different angles can be adopted when considering the concept of place. Hopefully through having a look at the different types of material that have already been posted on here, you have started to formulate your own opinions of, and come up with some of your own perceptions of place and what it means to you personally.
I was doing some research on how place is approached in the school curriculum, and I came across some interesting ways that the concept of place can be used in lessons, without being tied down to explaining the complex concept itself...
This resource is a lesson plan on how and why we decide to live in a certain places, based on perception, knowledge and past experiences, taking the idea that at the core of studying geography, there is the notion of place, on many levels, at the core. This can be the place around us as we see it, the activities and actions that go on in a certain place, and how these sitations can affect perceptions of place, and how in essence place connects a lot of other theories and concepts such as interdependence, cultural concepts, scale and indeed how it can be the start of a whole series of exploratory questions in and around this concept.
