<p>-Issues associated with interdependence including how: • unequal flows of people, money, ideas and technology within global systems can sometimes act to promote stability, growth and development but can also cause inequalities, conflicts and injustices for people and places - WTO CASE STUDY<br />
-Unequal power relations enable some states to drive global systems to their own advantage and to directly influence geopolitical events, while others are only able to respond or resist in a more constrained way - CHINA IN AFRICA CASE STUDY</p>
<ul>
<li>Global features and trends in the volume and pattern of international trade and investment associated with globalisation.</li>
<li>Trading relationships and patterns between large, highly developed economies such as the United States, the European Union, emerging major economies such as China and India and smaller, less developed economies such as those in sub-Saharan Africa, southern Asia and Latin America.</li>
<li>Differential access to markets associated with levels of economic development and trading agreements and its impacts on economic and societal well-being - NAFTA/USMCA CASE STUDY</li>

<p>An activity to help students write part of a 9 mark response to the question ‘For an NEE which you have studied, to what extent are TNCs effective in helping that country to develop’. The intro and 1st paragraph have been completed and students are instructed to pick out evidence for AO1, AO2 and AO3. There is then space for students to complete the 2nd paragraph and conclusion. On the second page of the document there is an optional gap fill to help students who are struggling.</p>
<p>This usually takes me 2 lessons to get through. Introduces key concepts including air pressure, isolation, global atmospheric circulation (hadley cell, ferrel cell and polar cell), pressure belts and surface winds.</p>
<p>A PSHE lesson originally used with year 9. Includes questions for discussion as well as written activities. Focuses on healthy friendships and how to deal with conflict.</p>
Lesson looking at glacial landforms created by deposition. Includes a gap fill activity about the formation of moraines, drumlins and erratics and a creative writing task to get students thinking about all of the processes working together.
A whole lesson/2 lessons depending on how long you want to stretch it out for! Looks at how globalisation has led to a decrease in inequality between countries but increased the gap within countries. Includes 3 worksheets with 2 exam style questions using figures.
A lesson looking at the dimensions of globalisation including the flows of capital, labour, products, services and information around the world. Lots of skills based tasks e.g. interpreting maps and graphs. Took 2 one hour lessons!
Lesson looking at the glacial processes of erosion, transportation and deposition. Includes filling in a worksheet using information sheets (either on desks or around the room) and annotating a photograph.
A PowerPoint with information and a few activities to introduce some of the key dimensions and factors of globalisation. Includes slides looking at; Patterns of production, distribution and consumption (global shift), Global Marketing (this task requires the Cambridge AQA student book), trading blocs and a Brexit research task. Took me two one hour lessons to get through!

Glaciers at work (erosion, transport and deposition), landforms of glacial erosion and landforms of glacial deposition.</p>
3 lessons (on one powerpoint) for the new AQA A geography spec looking at the Brandt line (briefly) Demographic Transition Model, causes of uneven development and consequences of development. Uses a few pages from the Hodder textbook but sure the information will be in other textbooks as well. Resources are on the last slides of the powerpoint.
