The practical guide to building an engaging, evidence-led geography curriculum through the power of enquiry.

The Power of Geographical Enquiry is an accessible guide to transforming your geography curriculum through the enquiry approach, using investigation to engage students and bring geography to life from Year 7 to A Level. In addition to being a key skill of the discipline, the enquiry approach is aligned with scientific research on how we learn, equipping you to create the most effective lessons and boost learning outcomes. In this accessible guide, geography expert David Rogers breaks down exactly how to harness the power of enquiry in your classroom, including:

- tried-and-tested strategies and guidance for building an engaging, evidence-led geography curriculum throughout the secondary years - the science of how we learn and how this links to the enquiry approach - sequences of lessons and tools that can be embedded across the curriculum, along with real-life examples, practical strategies and top tips - guidance on planning entire units of work,

including the compulsory elements at GCSE and A Level, and for progression between levels.

This book empowers teachers to use the enquiry approach for any topic or theme in geography. Inspire your students to plan investigations, problem-solve and tackle real-world issues through the enquiry approach, providing rich learning experiences while maintaining the awe and wonder that makes the subject so enjoyable. In addition, the book illustrates how the enquiry approach can help schools decolonise the curriculum and ensure that a diverse range of peoples, places and perspectives are covered.
