Exploring Geography in a Changing World is a new Key Stage 3 series designed to present real-life geography to motivate and stimulate pupils. With challenging content, engaging practical activities and an emphasis on "thinking skills" pupils can achieve a solid foundation of knowledge and skills for progression to GCSE. Book 2 focuses on the geography of Europe and includes material on future sources of energy, and the threat of the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Opportunities for fieldwork are provided throughout the course, and pupils relate the content to the real world through the Issues activities at the end of each chapter.
