Geography

An interactive GCSE Geography flood management simulation where students design and test flood protection strategies across a drainage basin. Students can combine nine hard and soft engineering techniques, including dams, levees, afforestation and floodplain zoning, while working within a fixed budget. Animated rainfall, river flooding and changing flood extents demonstrate how each method works. Students can compare costs, benefits, environmental impacts and downstream consequences to evaluate the most effective and sustainable flood management strategies.

Investigate how the different variables affect flood hydrographs

Explore how tectonic plates move and create Earth's major landforms through interactive geological simulations. Designed for GCSE and A-level Geography, this resource investigates continental rifting, transform faults, collision zones, ocean ridges, subduction boundaries and volcanic hotspots. Students can animate plate movements, examine cross-sections, explore earthquake distributions and investigate the formation of mountains, volcanoes, trenches, island arcs and tsunamis. Includes a global plate map, real-world examples such as Iceland, the Himalayas and Hawaii, interactive recap activities and knowledge checks.

Step through the five stages and watch birth rate, death rate and population change.
