Valerie Triggs – Review of Education, Pedagogy & Cultural Studies, 2024
Cloud cover created fog and many days of low visibility. With surprisingly no wind for weeks on end, water droplets in the fog froze on impact with tree branches, poles, doors--any stable object, creating a magical display of rime ice, which is heavier and denser than hoarfrost. The picturesque result made the month seem so much less dreary,…

Classroom teaching and field trips are both conventional ways of teaching geography in higher education.
