Books are really useful too!
The internet is often the only source some pupils use to find infomation about the topics they are studying. Of course the internet provides us with access to some really amazing resources and should be used appropriately. You will often be asked to visit particular web sites specifically because they provide sources not otherwise available. However sometimes you just can't beat a good book....
On this page we will make some suggestions about which books might be most useful for particular topics you study in KS3, GCSE or GCE level. You can find some relevant texts in the school library. You may also want to broaden your research and either borrow books from a public library or buy copies of particularly useful texts.
.....and now of course you can even use Apps like iBooks to read a range of texts on you iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch. So whichever way you look at it there's no reason not to have done some background reading! (28/05/11)
