“This book is a real gem and is highly recommended. It is an essential learning companion for students and teachers involved in preparing students to develop their Geography School-Based Assessment for CSEC. Its unique appeal lies in the fact that it is the first geography text to focus specifically on how to conceptualize, implement and write-up field-based SBA projects in Geography.” – Professor David Barker.

From the very first page of the book - A Guide to the Principles and Practices of the Geography School-Based Assessment - the reader will be impressed with the practicality of the guidance provided to complete a quality School-Based Assessment (SBA) assignment for the CSEC Geography examination. This book provides step-by step guidance from the planning and preparation of the SBA to the writing of the SBA report. The guidance provided for each step, while being comprehensive, is easy to follow.

The book represents good coaching from an experienced geography educator who is very familiar with both the requirements of the SBA for CSEC Geography and the pitfalls of some SBA assignments completed by candidates for that examination.

This book provides good coaching not only for students, but also for teachers, about how to prepare a quality SBA for CSEC Geography that will optimize the marks earned and so contribute to the achievement of a good grade for students taking the CSEC Geography examination.

Every student preparing for CSEC Geography examination and every teacher preparing students for that examination will find this book an invaluable guide to the completion of a quality SBA, which fully satisfies the CSEC requirements.
