Commemorating Anzac through engaging learning

Geography Stage 4

Overview

Students undertake a case study of the landscapes and landforms of five sites on the Gallipoli Peninsula. Drawing on their analysis of the aesthetic, cultural, spiritual and economic values of the Gallipoli landscape, they describe the value of Gallipoli for tourism. Students consider competing values and provide suggestions on how these can be managed. They create a detailed tourism blog post for potential visitors to the Gallipoli Peninsula.
