  2. EnquirySkills Why so important? Knowledge & Understanding = 40% Enquiry Skills = 60% KU - 1 ES - 2 Grade - 2 KU - 3 ES - 4 Grade - 4

  3. EnquirySkills What are they ? Gathering Processing Evaluating .

  4. GATHERING SKILLS ? = Collecting Take photos Use maps Interview Measuring Observing Fieldsketch Traffic survey Questionnaire Colour map .

  5. Gathering Skills Justification Why would you use them ? Drawing a map

  6. JUSTIFICATION Can show land uses Goodsource of information Can compare to Older maps Can see distributions .

  7. Gathering Skills Justification Why would you use them ? Observing/ Taking pictures

  8. JUSTIFICATION Good source of up to date information Accurate notes can be kept in a notebook Photos can be analysed later Traffic or pedestrian figures to process .

  9. Gathering Skills Justification Why would you use them ? Interview Or Survey

  10. JUSTIFICATION Accurate information directly from people Way of collecting historical information Can do a sample to process later-50 people Easy to draw graphs With the results .

  11. Gathering Skills Justification Why would you use them ? Fieldsketch

  12. JUSTIFICATION Sketch is more selective than photo Can pick out Relevant features Stores information instantly Can compare with Old picture

  13. PROCESSING SKILLS Simply means What are they ? drawing a graph drawing a diagram putting figures in a table Easier to read information Easy to make comparisom Easy to look at trends

  14. Processing SkillsJustification Why would you use them ? Line Graph

  15. JUSTIFICATION Shows amount of growth Easier to read than figures Relationship - 2 variables Easy to draw Shows trends .

  16. Processing Skills Justification Why would you use them ? Multiple Line Graph

  17. JUSTIFICATION Compares things at different places Easy to draw Similar trends can be seen . .

  18. Processing Skills Justification Why would you use them ? Bar Graph

  19. JUSTIFICATION Good way of showing Amounts Highs and lows Increases or decreases Enhanced in colour Enhanced in 3D . .

  20. Processing Skills Justification Why would you use them ? Pie Chart

  21. JUSTIFICATION Good way of showing Percentages Proportions Relative importance Easy to read Don’t need a scale Easy to compare different statistics

  22. Processing Skills Justification Why would you use them ? Proportional Bar Graph

  23. JUSTIFICATION Divided bar graph is good for showing proportions Is easier to draw than piechart Easy to read Easy to compare different statistics .

  24. Processing Skills Justification Why would you use them ? Transect

  25. JUSTIFICATION Transect is good for showing relationship -height and landuse Locations straight from map Comments can go underneath using headings like Land use Settlements Transport .

  26. Answering Questions GENERAL QUESTIONThe information below was collected during an investigation of a local factory PRODUCTION COSTS %Number of workers Transport 15 Plant running 15 Office 30 Council Rates 10 Manual 60 Machinery / Buildings 25 Transport 20 Wages 25 Managerial 6 Materials 10 For each table identify an appropriate technique ( you should have 2) which you would use to process this information. In each case justify your choice of technique

  27. Answer 2+2 =4 Answering Questions The production costs could be shown by a bar graph. The graph could show the largest to the smallest in order.. This would make comparison easy. The scale chosen can bring out major differences. Colour or shading can make it easy to compare the different costs PRODUCTION COSTS % Transport 15 Plant running 15 Council Rates 10 Machinery / Buildings 25 Wages 25 Materials 10 The production costs could be shown by a pie chart. Each production cost could be shown clearly in segments so that they could be compared. The main categories can be easily identified. Colour or shading can bring out the differences.

  29. Loch Tay A group of secondary pupils is to investigate the relationship between the land use and height on Ben Lawers. Describe two techniques which they could use to collect appropriate data. Technique 1 Technique 2 Justify your choices4 marks

  30. Japan’s Exports Give ONE processing technique which could be used to present the information in the diagram. Give reasons for your choice. Technique Reasons 3 marks

  31. Describe two techniques you could use to gather information in areas A and B to show differences in quality of environment. Justify reasons for your choice. 4 marks

  32. Information has been gathered along line X-Y on land use and height. What technique would you use to show this information? Give reasons for your choice of technique. 3 marks

  33. The pupils in the diagram are about to do a river study. What two techniques could they use to gather information about the characteristics of the river at AB on the sketch? Technique 1 Technique 2 Justify your choices4 marks

  34. Urban population as a percentage of Total Population Give one processing technique which could be used to show the information in the table. Give reasons for your choice. 3 marks

  35. Erosion along the West Highland Way “Footpath erosion along the West Highland Way is now spoiling a beautiful landscape” Give two gathering techniques which could be used when carrying out a study of footpath erosion. Why are these techniques suitable? 4 marks
