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 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.

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 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.

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 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 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 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 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 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 student guide to this simple statistical test. This worksheet gives examples of a variety of geographical investigations which can use interquartile ranges as well as a fully worked example for students to follow.

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.

A value table used to calculate probabilities from (single value) z scores.

A full significance table for use with the Student’s T Test. This version shows four different levels of significance.

A full critical value table for use with the Mann Whitney U Test.

An Excel spreadsheet which automatically calculates the critical value for the Chi Squared Test. A good way for students to check their long-hand working, or a way to analyse primary data for students who are unconfident in their maths skills.
