- Reference to contemporary contexts and applications throughout to increase the relevance of the content to learners.
- New digital versions of our textbooks are coming in 2015 and will offer an enriched learning experience through material such as animation, video and audio content, and/or self-marking quiz, assessment questions and personalisation of table of contents.
- The Workbook
Supports students to hone the essential skills of handling data, evaluating information and problem solving through a varied selection of relevant and engaging exercises and exam-style questions. - Endorsed by Cambridge International Examinations for Learner Support.
- Student-focused scaffolding is provided at relevant points and gradually reduced as the Workbook progresses, to promote confident, independent learning.
- Answers to all exercises and exam-style questions are provided on the CD-ROM for students to use to monitor their own understanding and track their progress through the course.
- The Revision Guide
- Clear Learning Objectives at the start of each section to aid navigation and track progress.
- Worked Examples guide learners through content in a step by step way, illustrating how to tackle complex problems.
- Formative assessment in the form of Progress Check questions appear throughout, allowing learners to track their understanding.
- Exam-style questions in each chapter provide opportunity for summative-style assessment.
- Tips throughout to help and remind students about exam technique, common errors and misunderstandings
- The Teachers Resource
- Contains helpful activities and guidance to support planning, delivery and assessment.
- Customisable detailed teaching guides, such as mapping grids for every topic, common misunderstandings and misconceptions, and ideas for in-class activities with additional advice for strecthing high acheivers and supporting struggling students.
- Provides practical activity worksheets including safety advice and teacher-specific guidance, homework sheets with corresponding marking schemes and worked answers to all questions in the coursebook.
- The resources are prepared with an international focus
- Practical investigations Workbook and Teachers Resource
- Workbook
- Contains guided investigations and practice questions for teachers and students.
- Provides opportunities to develop skills through practical investigation - planning, identifying equipment, creating hypotheses, recording results, analysing data, and evaluating.
- Ideal for teachers who find running practical experiments difficult due to lack of time, resources or support.
- Sample data- if students can’t do the experiments themselves- and answers to the questions are in the teacher’s guide.
- Teachers Resource
- Complements the practical workbook, helping you include more practical work in your lessons.
- Contains advice about planning investigations, guidance about safety considerations, as well as differentiated learning suggestions to support students who might be struggling and those who are more able.
