Great detail and content was excellent
I particularly liked the ‘research’ ‘apply’ and ‘tip’ sections...
...Research allows for more independent learning from the higher learners... The 'tips' support the constant need to apply to the exam process... The ‘skills’ allows for all abilities to apply their learning with meaningful tasks and activities.

This resource covers all the specification requirements for component 3.4 and reflects the knowledge required by students. A good mix of teaching aids (especially for the non-specialist) and student tasks which expand on learning... This will certainly aid with helping with lesson planning and course coverage.
The check your understanding sections are a great addition to quickly check understanding and review. I particularly liked the ‘research’ ‘apply’ and ‘tip’ sections. The research allows for more independent learning from the higher learners within the group especially. The tip sections support the constant need to apply to the exam process. The ‘skills’ section allows for all abilities to apply their learning with meaningful tasks and activities.
The information provided is in such detail it allows to the individuals to access the specification and break it down into small segments allowing engagement within the assignment not to wain and by engaging the leaner with the topic, greater learning and achievement can take place. For the teacher the added understanding questions allow for immediate feedback of progress being made. Great for teachers to underpin their subject knowledge. The use of pictures and spacious format makes this an easy resource to negotiate. The research areas and skills match the specification and aids in the independent learning of each student no matter of ability.

What do teachers say about this resource? (7738)
I felt the whole resource was very informative. I like the check your understanding questions as they provide both multiple choice and open ended questions. I really liked the visuals added for sustainability/transport. I think it's great, especially for coursework elements. Would be great for teachers, who need to freshen up their subject knowledge. The layout is good... especially with the facts that are added alongside the general information. Good for those grades 8-9 students.
What do teachers say about this resource? (7161)
A very good resource. Very detailed in the areas that it covers with application to classroom and industry. I like the graphics, ‘did you know’ boxes, interspaced with quizzes, questions and exercises.
I think that this resource would be great to use as a revision tool. It will provide a back up to information taught within lessons and should allow students to review and consolidate knowledge. The resource contains a range of relevant theoretical knowledge and key terms.
