Module One

Welcome to the first module of your Year 8 Global Perspectives course!

Module One is all about research, evaluation and problem solving. You will explore water distribution across the world, the reasons why people do not have access to clean water and the effects that has. You will construct a research question and collect relevant information to help you answer the question. You will practise your evaluation skills by considering the reliability of your sources.

You should work through the module, completing the activities and watching any videos. Remember to check your answers.

When you have completed the topic work, there is an assignment for you to complete.
