Full Description
Oxford Revise Christianity and Buddhism covers everything that you need to revise for AQA GCSE Religious Studies A.
You'll cover all the beliefs and practices, from the nature of God in Christianity to the Buddha's life in Buddhism. Thematic studies help you look at themes through the eyes of both religions.
By working through the Knowledge - Retrieval - Practice sections, you will be using proven ways to revise, check and recall so that what you revise sticks in your memory.
Knowledge Organisers present you with the beliefs and practices for both Christianity and Buddhism, as well as the thematic studies which look at themes through the lens of both religions. Key quotes from each religion are given, while charts and tables help memory retention. An online glossary helps you to learn the definitions to key terms.
Regular Retrieval questions give you an opportunity to check that you remember what you have learned. Retrieval questions from earlier chapters help you to recall what you have learned previously.
Finally, exam-style Practice questions give you loads of experience of the type of question you will face in your exam. This will strengthen your ability to recall and apply knowledge in your exams. All the answers to the practice questions as well as a helpful mark scheme are provided online.
