  5. Applied Understanding • What is tourism? • Why has tourism increased over the past 50 years? • What is a ‘Honeypot’? • What are the advantages and disadvantages of tourism? • Why is Malvern popular with tourists? • What is an AONB? • State the Hypothesis and the enquiry questions.

  15. Evaluation • Identify which results support your hypothesis and give reasons • Identify which results reject your hypothesis and give reasons • Explain why your conclusions might not be applied to other similar examples • Explain why your conclusions might be invalid or wrong • What needs to be done to: • Increase the accuracy of results • Increase the reliability of methods • Increase the validity of the conclusions
