GIS as revision tool

I created this map as a revision aid for year 12 AS srudents - Geopolitics of Energy. The idea came out of a discussion with students about the importance of organisational skills. A common issue was the studets' ability to remember case study information, including location, relevance and scale. An interesting discussion followed about the emphasis we put on specific case studies as students were left feeling that case studies showed them unique processes and places rather than the real intention of contextualising Global processes. The map attempts to package a complicated case study of Geopolitics in Energy.
