Geography paper 3???

Does anyone have any resources for gcse geography paper 3??? I have absolutely no way how to revise for it because our teacher hasnt taught us anything on it (like the types of graphs we should know about, the different types of data sampling) so im absolutely clueless when it comes to the paper. If anyone has anything it would be greatly appreciated

just sort of some information about the different types of graphs (histograms, divided bar, dot maps, flow lines etc). Its just that my teacher has never went through these types of graphs before. Thankyou so much!

ofcourse no worries but bro geo paper 3, I don’t even know what the questions look like😂😂 I’m going to start by going through the question types.

These are some questions related to your fieldwork that could come up:

What were your questions?
Why were your locations suitable for study?
What were the risks and how did you reduce them?
What primary and secondary data collection techniques did you use? How? Why?
How did you present your data? Why? How useful was it? How could your investigation have been improved?

OH AND I’D SAY HAVE A GOOD GLANCE AT THE PRE RELEASE

Realistically speaking the only graph most likely to come up is bar graph and the questions should be pretty straightforward

Point
Example
Explain and Link
To some extent, proposal is socially sustainable
because it provides housing for current and future generations,
which is essential for their well-being and helps communities to grow and prosper over time.
However, elements of the plan are not socially sustainable
because not all housing will be affordable to local people,
This means many local people, such as young people seeking to buy their first house cannot afford to live in their community, forcing them out of the local area, away from family and friends.
The proposal also includes environmentally sustainable features
such as the integration of movement/ transportation that is sustainable, such as walkable communities, cycle routes, and public transport e.g. the new railway station and bus services.
This is sustainable for current and future generations because it reduces reliance on cars and therefore traffic congestion, lowering carbon emissions and improves the quality of air, promoting healthier communities, reduced carbon footprints and limiting the area’s contribution to climate change.
However, elements of the plan are not environmentally sustainable
because the increase in population in the area will inevitably increase pressure on local roads leading to further congestion and travel times.
The increased congestion will not only have a detrimental impact on existing people in the local but increasing travel times and frustration, but an increase in emissions from vehicles, leading to increased air pollution which will have a detrimental effect on the health and well-being of local people and more greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, enhancing climate change, now and in the future.
Features of the proposal are economically sustainable
in that social and economic services are included, providing employment opportunities for residents.
Local people have the opportunity to improve their economic prosperity through employment in shops, services, and commercial and office spaces. This will contribute to the multiplier effect in the area, supporting the community in achieving economic sustainability.
However, the plan could have a negative economic impact
on existing economic activities in the local area due to increased competition.
For example, existing shops in the area could lose business due to the new development leading to an increase in unemployment for local people, having a detrimental effect on their well-being.
In conclusion, construction on a greenfield site is more unsustainable than building on a brownfield site due to urban sprawl, disruption to habitats, increased greenhouse emissions, and the negative impact on local people who are priced out of the area. Development on brownfield sites alleviates these issues and promotes more effective land uses, preserving greenspaces for the majority. Overall, I feel the proposed development
