Competence Orientation The new TERRA Geography book is a consistently student-oriented workbook with a strong focus on competencies and methods. This takes into account educational theories that state that acquiring learning strategies is more important for lifelong learning than having once acquired extensive knowledge. Teaching and Securing Methods The clearly recognizable method double pages convey practical and comprehensive methodological competence. Illustrative and age-appropriate materials enable exploratory and independent learning while simultaneously promoting cooperative social behavior. A New Task Culture The tasks progressively build all areas of competence from orientation to assessment. The operators are clearly defined and used consistently, making the tasks understandable for the students.
