Book Description

The Collins Cambridge Lower Secondary Global Perspectives series offers a skills-building approach to the Cambridge curriculum framework (1129) from 2022. The resources support students to develop skills in analysis, collaboration, communication, evaluation, reflection and research, exploring global issues through rich international sources. We are working with Cambridge Assessment International Education towards endorsement of this title for the Cambridge Lower Secondary Global Perspectives curriculum framework (1129) from 2022. This book provides full coverage of the Stage 7 Cambridge Lower Secondary Global Perspectives curriculum framework. Focused on improving skills: each chapter centres on two skill strands, building these skills through a carefully structured sequence of active learning towards a collaborative final task. Empower students to engage with a range of contemporary issues and perspectives. In Stage 7 these relate to the syllabus topics, 'Change in culture and communities', 'Education for all', 'Health and wellbeing', 'Globalisation', 'Values and beliefs', 'Employment' and 'Environment, pollution and conservation'. Help students to assess their progress and understand how to improve: the final chapter asks students to apply the skills they have learned across Stage 7, by carrying out a group project in their local community and reflecting in writing on what they have learned. Encourage reflection through structured Reflection points in each lesson and a self-assessment Check your progress feature at the end of each chapter. The clear lesson-by-lesson approach allows teachers to easily use the resources in the classroom and build them into their own schemes of work. The Collins resources can be used as preparation for the Challenges, if schools wish, as each chapter in the Student's Book links to the skills and topic focus of a Stage 7 Challenge.
