GCSE

SHP has published extensively for Development Studies (Medicine and Crime), Depth Studies and Modern World - with books and online material in Hodder's Dynamic Learning environment. Resources are arranged below by topic.

But be aware that some books have been written for an earlier specification.

SHP Smarter History Series

Written in 2009-10, this GCSE series provides students’ books and TRBs for each of the three specifications.

The aim has been to provide a range of materials (student’s book, teacher’s resource book, E-Learning activities and website-based kinaesthetic activities) which help your students to succeed in their GCSE examinations. We have done this the obvious way, by providing detailed guidance on how to tackle the main types of exam questions but, equally if not more importantly, using the experience and lessons of teaching as the framework. This has meant identifying the problems students stumble over each year and then building the resources around our understanding of how students learn most effectively in Development Studies. However we also want these resources to be about more than examination success so we have also set wider goals, including an awareness of how the Development Study fits into the wider SHP course and how this kind of course provides perspective on today’s events. Our aim therefore is for examination success and to make a contribution to students’ broader education.

The titles in this series are:

Medicine through Time (AQA, Edexcel, OCR)
Crime and Punishment through Time (Edecel, OCR)
Germany 1919-1945 (AQA, Edexcel, OCR)
