Study
tips:
Using
this site should really help increase your knowledge and understanding of the
geography of upland limestone areas. There are additional things you can do with
the site to make your studying more effective: - while
you work through the site, make notes on paper about things you find tricky or
need to remember
- after
working through a section, turn away from the computer and test yourself - can
you name five features of a limestone landscape?
- write
down everything you can remember about, for example,stalactites. Then have another
look at the screen and see how well you did
It's
good to get into the habit of doing things like this while you study and will
make it easier for you to remember the important facts. In
this section you'll find exam-style questions to work through. Take your time
and answer each part of the question as if you were in the exam. When you're finished,
compare your answer to the sample answer we've given. Exam
hints: Look
at the number of points allocated to each question to help you gauge how much
you need to write - if there are two points given, you'll need to make two points
in your answer. If
you need to draw a diagram, use a ruler! Make it neat and easily read - and don't
forget to label it. Make
sure you read a question thoroughly before you start to answer it. If you're not
sure, read it again until you know what the examiner is looking for. Keep
an eye on the clock. Know how many questions you need to answer and work out how
long you can spend on each question. Allow yourself time at the end to read through
everything you've written and check for mistakes. |
