your a wee bit hypacritacal arnt ye?

anyway this is exactly what im writing for geo skills:

*i learned how to use a map

*i learned how actual urban theory relates to reality

*i learned how to draw up a survey form and how to conduct interviews with people

*i learned how to record and present information, eg, survey form, pie charts and bar charts.

*i learned how to work in a group situation and to enjoy the dynamics of group interaction

that will get you the full 10 marks

Do you have to have that many points?

Only make two points. Two sentences for each, each point getting 5 marks. You can just waffle a second sentence.

or you could write down the 5 like i did and get a guarenteed 2 marks for each point, which = 10!

You can say that you used:

Investigative/research skills: Like book research, looking through internet, finding info from the Ordnance Survey maps, etc.

Communicative skills: Got permission/assistance from science teacher for experiments/tasks, learned how to speak in front of an audience on your investigation, learned how to work in a team and assign tasks to other team members, etc.

Stuff like that. Good Luck.

Are communicative skills a geographical skill?

Oakbark

It doesn't say geographical skills, just skills. And since these are skills you could learn from undertaking a fieldwork study, i think they're valid.

Said geographical skills last year. It'd be ok to use most of the ones chillywilly said

My mock paper asked for geographical skills as well.

Sorry maybe it asked it in a year further back, i assume those skills would be okay provided you link them to the fieldwork. Go with CW in case i guess
