World Development AS Level

UPDATED 20140813 11:55:10

The AS course enables you to study the issues and responsibilities surrounding sustainable development and global citizenship in some depth and become informed and active participants in our global society and encourages you to set world development in the context of the UK and its links with the wider world. The AS syllabus has two themes: development, resources and global citizenship and poverty and inequality. The A2 part of the course develops greater depth and range of knowledge to understanding the evolving processes at work in development. It seeks to extend the critical thinking of students to develop an understanding of the complexity of inter-relationships in development issues; the syllabus has four themes: perspectives of development, economic development, political development and social development. World Development combines particularly well with AS/A2 Government and Politics, Economics, Law and Sociology as there is some overlap between these subjects.
