Is anyone going to plan theres essay in the exam? is there any space to even do this?

Yes definitely. Even if it's just a few scribbles, jot down your case study names and a few key figures. It will keep you on track and hopefully prevent you from going off point. Don't spend too long on it though, literally a few minutes. :smile:

When doing a plate tectonic theory practice essay, i found it difficult to think of evidence or reasons against the theory which lead to an imbalanced arguement, would i be penalised for this? plus has anyone got any reasons against the theory, thanks! :smile:

Basic evaluation points are Wagner couldn't back up his evidence further therefore leading to it being discredited at the time as it was highly theoretical. For modern PTT, we still do not have the technology to be able to prove 100% that convection cells for example are what drive the plates.

It's always important to evaluate in an essay, and although there's not a great deal you can put in against theory it's worth punching out a short paragraph to gain a couple of extra marks, even if it doesn't truly balance the argument.

What case studies do people have for property led regeneration?? I need one still :frown:

Property-led regeneration involves the regeneration of an inner-city area by changing the image of the area, improving the environment, attracting private investment and improving confidence for further investment. In many cases, it involves ‘flagship’ projects such as at Canary Wharf in the London Docklands. UDCs are the main form of property-led regeneration.

Partnerships represent a major switch of funding mechanisms towards competitive bidding. Local government has to think of imaginative projects but also has to form partnerships in the local inner-city area with the private sector and the local communities. The partnership then submits a 5-year plan to central government in competition with other inner-city areas. The most successful schemes combine social aims with economic and environmental outcomes.

I agree with the predictions of most people for Plate tectonics and weather and climate, though does anyone have any suggestions for the World Cities short answer questions?

In terms of structuring a 40 mark answer for a question such as "Critically evaluate the possible causes and effects of the phonomenon global warming?"

I think intrusive activity and intrusive landforms mean the same thing. If not, maybe the types of lava would class as intrusive 'activity'. Not sure really. :s-smilie:

On the spec, intrusive activity is defined as the landforms, so dykes, batholiths etc :smile:

If you had an essay question of itcz for weather and climate...
Would you include the consequences of them- monsoons and tropical storms and then case studies on them? Linking the case studies back to the itcz?
