Sha Tin College teachers publish IGCSE textbook
On 9 June, Sha Tin College hosted its own book launch event. Three members of the Business Education Department (Paul Hoang, Margaret Ducie and Sam Cleary) have worked hard over the past year to write an IGCSE Business Studies textbook designed specifically for the Edexcel syllabus and published by Anforme in the UK.
The book covers the entire IGCSE specification in 25 chapters, with the aims from Edexcel specification stated at the start of each one. It includes global case studies to highlight the international nature of the subject, with examples from Japan, UK, USA, France, Germany, China, Thailand, Chile, Hong Kong and many others.
With over 35 exam-style questions with detailed marks schemes in line with Edexcel guidelines, the book is extremely helpful in assisting students to understand examination requirements. The chapter review questions and the summary of key terms at the end of each chapter help students grasp core concepts of each topic.
Teachers commented that the book is presented in a user-friendly format and has made good use of visuals with numerous photos, images, charts and diagrams.
