Abstract
The paper discusses the use of project work as a method of teaching and assessment in two third‐year option courses in the Department of Geography at Reading University. We conclude that such work provides students with valuable training, both in the academic and non‐academic worlds, as well as being rewarding and enjoyable in itself.Keywords
