If teaching rivers "floats your boat" then both DVDs are worthy resources". Review first appeared in Teaching Geography Spring 2014 Stephen Schwab, Head of Geography, Neston High School, Cheshire and member of the GA Secondary Phase Committee. Review in Teaching Geography. Along with more traditional maps, graphs and diagrams the River Processes and Landforms DVD uses an "in-river cam' on the head of a gorge walker for some memorable footage. All the main features, from pot holes to deltas and all three alluvial processes are explained. The case study footage comes from the UK and abroad and is in easily managed chapters; this is useful because although the DVD is aimed at key stages 3-5, the teacher will need to edit for different cohorts. The DVD has helpful teaching materials and student activities for the hard-pressed teacher. If teaching rivers "floats your boat" then both DVDs are worthy resources.
