Listers,
My first lecture to a group of secondary school students went well and
during my stumblings over the net I found some excellent resource material
and had some equally excellent responses from the list.

Thank yous go to Brian Cooper for pointing me to http://www.greenmap.com/ ,
Ian Johnson for his easy-to-understand definition of a GIS in "Understanding
MapInfo" and to Robert Crossley for his advice and contacts that he sent me.

One thing I did find was that 3d visualisations made it very easy for me to
explain the fundamentals of topography and catchments to the students and
that 65mins is not long enough.

The following URLs were some of the best I found for resource material.
