Level 2 Geography

Year 12 Geography

Geography is the study of the environment as the home of people and investigates the ways in which features are arranged on the earth's surface.  It describes and explains the patterns and processes that create them, students learn to think spatially and use maps, visual images and new technologies, including geographical information systems (GIS) to obtain, present and analyse information.

Geography is the study of places and the relationships between people and their environments.  Geographers explore both the physical properties of Earth's surface and the human societies spread across it.  They also examine how human culture interacts with the natural environment and the way that locations and places can have an impact on people.  Geography seeks to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop and change over time.
