The student book contains everything needed for effective geography instruction. Proven TERRA quality is enhanced by conceptual innovations: the new color coding system facilitates navigation within the book as well as learning, creating a pleasant learning environment. Careful vocabulary learning and the development of knowledge networks lead to a more sustainable acquisition of competencies than mere additive listing of individual examples and terms. The task framework, expanded to focus on competencies, encompasses all areas of requirements and levels of difficulty, striking a balance between individualization and standardization. The designation of basic tasks and those for further work provides additional opportunities for internal differentiation.
