Pre-release Update: Processes, KES and Quiz

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

Only a week to go, so hope you’re revising. I will be doing lessons as useful, so free feel to come in if you haven’t got an exam. We’ll be finishing the mega-quiz (see below) and discussing potential questions relating to FUGIS.

Remember that you need to be able to explain a physical process that occurs in our extreme environment and the feature/s that it produces. We have studied ventification which results in ventifacts, and basal slippage which leads to the formation of ice shelves and icebergs. Learn at least one of these.

 

We also had a go at the Apprentice megaquiz, the point behind this is that you need to be highly familiar with the resources you will use; this is a problem that you found with the mock exam, unfamiliarity putting pressure on your time. I would use the questions at your own pace for revision. I will also upload the quiz for download.

Ask 118 118

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

Had a little play with this the other week. You can ask a question for free at the moment.

Had an interesting answer to where is the most difficult place to travel to on Earth?

I just wonder whether people would get the same answer.
