They can also look at the physical geography around them - lakes, rivers etc.

2) Maps can be used as a visual aid in describing geographical features over time in their area  ]]> 2021-04-07 16:46:24 UTC https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1392369178 leahmariekelly99 https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1392396501 1. Students can evaluate how settlements have changed in their area over their lifetime.
Students could compare with a settlement in a more built up area e.g. Dublin and note the differences between both maps.

2. Maps are a good way for students to learn about geographical features that are in their chosen area.]]> 2021-04-07 16:51:53 UTC https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1392396501 dannytheguitarman https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1392397976 1) Students can use EPA website to investigate changes in landuse over time.

students could also use the maps for the topic of pollution or climate change
2. Teachers can use maps when discussing the topic of soils in class ]]> 2021-04-07 18:38:53 UTC https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1392899206 https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1392966891 1. To see how the land has changed over time and how the town has increase in sized.
Analyse the land around Enniscorthy and how it relates to PEA, SEA and TEA. The functions of the town and surrounding area. 
2.

Students could look at the problems associated with urban sprawl.
2: By using different WMS layers students could examine the different soil types in Carrick-on-Suir and the surrounding area. This could link closely to rivers, as they look at the influence the river has had on the soil of the area.]]> 2021-04-10 10:02:31 UTC https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1402286098 https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1420427927 2) Maps can aid visual learning and students can pick local areas

2)  By using the soil filters students can examine patterns in the settlement based off the soil type in the area.

Students can use EPA maps to investigate how their chosen settlement has expanded over a period of time. They can do so by using the Corine filters (1990-2018) and see the expansion at various intervals in time. Students will also be able to see the natural features of the area e.g. rivers, lakes, mountains.

Adare has grown in popularity for tourism, housing and sport e.g. golf in this period of time. They could possibly discuss the changes in land use over time and what are the main industries evident in this change 
2: EPA Maps can be used as a visual tool in analyzing and describing several features e.g. water quality, soil type + use
Note: Only the  Corine 1990 filter would work for me when accessing EPA MAPS tool.]]> 2021-04-20 07:53:56 UTC https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1436768026 roisinoc321 https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1437239537 1. it would be useful to use with a class as they will be able to clearly see how land use has changed over a period of time in their local area or at different popular locations around ireland. 
different layers can be found on the website such as soil, bedrock and these would be useful when looking at other content such as soil within the geography course and could be used to examine the soil type around their local area ]]> 2021-04-20 10:48:26 UTC https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1437239537 markmccb1997 https://padlet.com/msemoloney/4q6zks3ad80xsoyh/wish/1442521280 1) Students can use EPA maps to see how the use of land in their local town has changed over time.
