Teaching Orienteering

Rating:
Summary: Comprehensive guide to learning and teaching orienteering
Review: Carol McNeill combines experience and proficiency in orienteering (7th at the World Championships) and in instruction and coaching; she knows both how to do it and to teach it. This book is liberally illustrated with maps, diagrams, and photos, and provides ideas for teaching map and compass use through orienteering that can be applied to all ages and levels. Most of the map examples are from Scotland and some aspects of the text are specific to the United Kingdom, but the text and exercises apply to all locations. This is a wonderful resource for those who wish to teach orienteering or learn to orienteer better. I go back to it again and again. Highly recommended.
