World
Regional Geography
Based on the experience
with Inside the Global Economy and again to share and to save costs ABC-Open Learning(Australia), Utbildningsradion (Sweden), TELEAC/NOT (the
Netherlands), NHK(Japan),
the CNDP (France), Cambridge Studios(U.S.A), with
financial support of the Annenberg/CPB project
started to co-produce a telecourse about World Regional Geography.
The first discussions about the co-production started in October 1993 and a contract
was signed in July 1994 at MediaNet in Munich. Experts of the six countries developed
52 key concepts of the regional geography. These key concepts were translated into
case-studies of each about 10 minutes. The small documentaries are used by each partner
tor produce its own version of the World Regional Geography. ABC-Open Learning in
Australia used the 52 case-studies to produce two television series of 13 x 30 min.
each.
A
World of Difference: Introduction to Human Geography and A Sense of Place: Introduction to Regional Geography.
NHK started to broadcast the series as 10 minute programmes, Cambridge Studios
produced a telecourse of 26 x 30 min. and Utbildningsradion, TELEAC/NOT and CNDP
produce different series.

of Place is
