Could  GCSE Geography  be the  right  direction   for you? www.hulmegeogblog.blogspot.com
The world in which we live is likely to change more in the next 50 years than it has ever done before.  Geography explains why and helps to prepare you for those changes. Geography  tackles big issues: •  environmental responsibility •  global interdependence •  cultural understanding and tolerance •  commerce, trade and industry. Geography provides a firm basis for life-long learning. The  transferable skills  which geography fosters are an asset in the  complex world of employment  today. Geography is about the future and encourages flexible thinking.
Compared to other subjects, geography graduates are among the most employable. They possess the skills that employers look for. In part this is because the subject combines a knowledge of science and an understanding of the arts. •  make a concise report •  handle data •  ask questions and find answers •  make decisions about an issue •  analyse material •  organise themselves •  think creatively and independently •  good communicators •  spatially aware •  socially, economically and environmentally aware •  problem solvers •  good team players •  computer literate •  well rounded, flexible thinkers
