This particular Japan case study is for the Hazard Earth topic and is designed to benefit students whilst saving teachers time and effort.
This case study will help students get an understanding of the different ways in which earthquakes can impact countries differently based on various socio-economic and political factors. It shows how a prepared country deals with our hazardous earth and its natural disasters (looking at housing, economic recovery, and the organizations and countries involved)
The 2011 Japan earthquake and tsunami shows how a prepared country can still be greatly affected by natural hazards, especially when looking at the Fukushima nuclear power plant meltdown, so acts as a good case study for students to learn about as part of the hazardous earth topic of the OCR specification.
A-Level geography is a great subject for A-Level students to learn. It teaches them a range of topics from different landscape systems, understanding food around the world, migration patterns, and more. All of which will be used by students throughout their careers and beyond.
