  • Coffee & Geography 3x19 David Preece (UK) Data vis, the Sahara and more...
    Kit Marie and David Preece sit down with a cuppa and chat about the what is ‘home’, Sahara desert, data visualisations, amongst other things!
    In the world before YouTube and the internet, the opportunities to be inspired were different and rare. In 1995, Dr James Jackson gave the Royal Institution Christmas Lectures, called "Earth: An Explorer's Guide" on a relatively new idea called Plate Tectonics, and a young boy in Birmingham, called David Preece, had his view of the world changed. He didn't know he wanted to do Geography or study the world, but it started a journey that would end up nearly three decades later with this podcast. With the incredible support and guidance of Geography teachers, David read Geography at university and postgrad, before training to be a Geography teacher in South East London. He taught in schools for 13 years, as a teacher and Head of Department. He's been involved in UCAS and lots of school adventures; before moving to Initial Teacher Education at Teach First in 2021.

We’ll have fun exploring all the myriad of ways that connects your life to geography. Wait – you don’t think you’re a ‘geographer’? Well, that’s ok! If you have a love and passion for the world then you probably are more than you know.
    If you're interested in being a guest or want to find out more, then visit https://geogramblings.com/coffee-geography-podcast/. There you will also find an interactive map to explore the locations of guests and the brews that they drink!
