A full significance table for use with the Chi Squared test. This version shows five different levels of significance.

A student guide for the use of Z scores within geographical research. Includes a step-by-step guide showing students how to calculate them.

A comprehensive guide to one of the more commonly used statistical tests in geography. As well as highlighting the strengths of Chi Squared and the parameters needed for its correct use, this guide also provides a step-by-step set of instructions and a worked example showing how it can be used to analyse questionnaire data.

This guide introduces geography students to the initial stages of statistical analysis by highlighting some of the necessary considerations when choosing a stats test and some of the key terms they need to know and use.

A worksheet designed to support students in becoming more independent as they start and complete their NEA. Students are asked to justify their choice of title via a balloon debate - the worksheet highlights some of the key areas that their justifications should cover. This enables students to see the relative strengths and weaknesses in each others’ titles and encourages them to make their NEA titles as strong as possible.

An Excel spreadsheet which automatically calculates the critical value for Spearman’s Rank Correlation Coefficient A good way for students to check their long-hand working, or a way to analyse primary data for students who are not confident in their maths skills.

A simple, step by step guide to presenting quantitative data on a map in ArcGIS and creating a new layer of information.

A worksheet designed to support students in becoming more independent as they start and complete their NEA. Students are asked to come up with questions regarding their chosen research location which they can then analyse in themselves and categorise, highlighting particular strengths and weaknesses. This is to help them recognise a strong geographical research title at the start of their NEA process.

A worksheet designed to support students in becoming more independent as they start and complete their NEA. Students are asked to define the different forms of data they may need to collect as part of their NEA. This encourages students to think more widely about the nature of data and how different forms of data might be collected independently.

An Excel spreadsheet which automatically calculates the critical value for the Student’s T test. A good way for students to check their long-hand working, or a way to analyse primary data for students who are not confident in their maths skills.

A worksheet designed to support students in becoming more independent as they start and complete their NEA. Students are asked to complete a quiz that ranks their research activities in terms of the level of independence they have displayed.

A worksheet designed to support students in becoming more independent as they start and complete their NEA. Students are asked to complete a checklist of activities to show that they have worked independently during their research.

A worksheet designed to support students in becoming more independent as they start and complete their NEA. Students are asked to design their perfect, no-limits fieldwork research for their NEA. Once teachers then give the parameters for the fieldwork, such as location and timescale, students then scale their ideas to work logistically. This activity encourages students to think big and take greater ownership with their research, improving their motivation to be independent.

A student guide to Lorenz Curves - what they are, how they could be used in geographical research and how to calculate them. The worksheet includes a step-by-step guide and worked example.

A worksheet designed to support students in becoming more independent as they start and complete their NEA. Students are asked to come up with guided questions regarding their chosen research location to help them think more widely about potential NEA titles that can be used.

A worksheet designed to support students in becoming more independent as they start and complete their Geography NEA. Students are asked to select appropriate descriptions of what an independent researcher is like - highlighting the kind of good practice they should emulate.

A worksheet designed to support students in becoming more independent as they start and complete their NEA. Students are asked to complete the diary in the form of a table, recording their thoughts, any positive and negative feedback, and providing a structure to the research process.

A guide listing a range of techniques teachers can use to try to get their students to engagement more with their fieldwork site. These cover the time before, during and after the fieldwork has taken place.

Through a series of five tasks, this worksheet guides students through the thought processes needed to ensure successful deployment of GIS in the collection and/or presentation of their data in the NEA.

A guide showing students a range of ways to use this statistical test as well as a step-by-step guide for its completion through a fully-worked geographical example.
