I need help with A-level coursework

I've never done coursework before and now I have to do my geography NEA. I'm not the type of person who's really cut out for this sort of work. I need stuff explicitly explained to me, and so having to do this over the holiday with no teacher assistance is really difficult. They've provided resources of course, and I've looked through those, but I just don't know how to actually research things, how to come up with sub-questions or whatever. This needs to be done before summer ends, and I really want to get it out of the way quickly so I'm not worried about it the whole time, but I just can't do it. If anyone has experienced something similar to this, how did you get it done? How do you find sources? How do you know which sources are reliable?

I would first pick an area of the course that you would like to investigate (i.e. do you want to do human or physical, and which aspect of that would you specifically like to look at).

I would then go and look for literature related to the topic you are interested in to act as a starting point for specifically what you want to investigate.

It will then hopefully be a little bit easier to come up with a main investigation question, and then the sub-questions might come a little bit easier.
