Exploring General Knowledge Level 7 Student Book
Exploring General Knowledge is a series of eight books for classes 1 to 8 dealing with general knowledge and life skills. The series aims to help the students and learners: 1. effectively navigate in the ocean of information available to us through multiple sources 2. in personal enrichment 3. develop a better understanding of the world The books draw on the vast experience of the authors in the knowledge domain, and their constant interaction with the learners, parents and teachers. They realise that it is important for any general knowledge book to include the changing experiences and ecosystem of learners. This, according to them, would take the concept of general knowledge beyond knowing the answers to trivia and quizzes. They have aptly focussed on important contemporary life skills and etiquettes, which are necessary tools for the students to apply the knowledge and information made available to them in real-life situations.
