Description
Adopts an enquiry-based approach applying it in a specifically British context. The emphasis is on issues which stress the relationship between people and their environment and is therefore in line with the objectives of the GCSE geography syllabuses. The issues are presented through a range of resources which include maps, statistics, newspaper extracts, interviews, photographs, drawings and case studies which are detailed and drawn from all around the UK. The numerous tasks and questions relate closely to GCSE requirements, offering pupils practice for their examinations. The authors have also set out summary keypoints for revision purposes and included ideas for coursework at the end of each section.
