The series: SHP Smarter History is the new approach to GCSE from the Schools History Project. It offers interesting lessons and comprehensive content plus step by step coaching in exam skills -- using SHP's Exam Buster approach. This is the best of both worlds from the experts who know what good teaching is about and also know what the SHP specifications are all about. Edexcel Protest, Law and Order in the Twentieth Century is an authoritative new book from the Schools History Project for Edexcel's Unit 3 Source Enquiry examining the reasons for and response to four examples of political and economic protest through the twentieth century: the Suffragettes; the General Strike of 1926; the Miners's strike of 1984; the Poll Tax protest of 1990. It covers the relevant requirements of the Edexcel specification but delivers them in the context of a motivating, enquiry-led approach to ensure that your courses are interesting and motivating to teach yet still deliver good results for your students. At every relevant stage through the book 'ExamBuster' features ('Meet the Examiner' and 'Smarter Revision') help blend exam preparation with historical learning so that by the end of the course students understand not only the period and its issues but also how they will be expected to think and write about this for the examination. Key features of Smarter History - varied pace and style of learning which is essential to keep your students motivated over a long period. - activities that fire student's curiosity about the issues and lively text that engages directly with GCSE students - engaging exam preparation techniques that have been thoroughly trialled in real schools with real pupils - written by experienced teachers and backed by the leading curriculum development body for history - the Schools History Project - who are the architects of the SHP approach
