Universal and sustainable resources which can be picked up by a teacher at any level of experience. Each lesson has been tweaked over years of experience teaching at a sixth form college. Students have enjoyed the lessons and achieved amazing results. All of my powerpoints have a colour scheme, bold imagery and the same font throughout - because style is important! I hope that these resources will save you time and free up your energy to make teaching more fun.

This is a full scheme of work for Tectonics that I have used for four years with great success. I have edited improved it during that time. It includes model answers that I have written and some examples of student work. The slides are stimulating and the lessons cover a variety of skills including statistics. There is a strong focus on exam question practise and knowledge retention. The homework set for students will be based on revision for class quizzes (which you can run as a competition) and also longer written answers to exam questions based on content which the students have learned in previous lessons. To support the students’ studies, I have referred to the Oxford and Hodder text books in a few of the lessons, where students can find additional notes. But overall, most of the powerpoints are self contained and can be taught by a teacher at any level of experience and to students of varied ability.

18 – Spearman’s Rank Statistical Test (Tectonics, Edexcel, A level)

(0)
Edexcel. Topic 1: Tectonic Processes and Hazards. Lesson 18 of 18. Spearman’s Rank Statistical Test Starter quiz and mark scheme Correlation and spearman’s rank definitions task Scattergraphs showing positive, negative and no correlation Reading and note taking on use of Spearman’s Rank Correlation Coefficient in geography Worked example using river case study. Students start by describing and explaining pattern on scatter graphs Next, students work through the whole statistical test, arriving at a conclusion based on Rs value. Answers and justification are shown for each stage. Finally, students will use excel data to complete a spearman’s rank test based on comparing earthquake deaths and magnitude. Excel document is included plus answers on a separate document demonstrating more complex ranking system. Final slide lists all case studies used in the whole scheme of work to aid revision for end of topic test.
