The series "Hodder Geography" offers a fully integrated course for KS3, meeting the revised National Curriculum requirements. Each book tackles a key theme using a range of scales and locations ensuring balanced coverage of the UK, Europe and World dimensions. The activities have been specially designed to enable pupils to demonstrate progress in their knowledge, understanding and skills, as well as achievement at different levels. They also provide opportunities for pupils to explore and develop their own values to people, places and the environment. Integration between the books provides a firm foundation in the key geographical skills and offers comprehensive coverage of specific place requirements while the modular approach allows schools flexibility in constructing a KS3 course appropriate to their needs. This text uses tourism as an integrated case study from within which to introduce concepts and themes in industry, business activity, development and the environment. By showing how tourism is made up of all sorts of industries and has lasting affects in both urban and rural contexts, this book explores the interaction of people and the environment.
