Step 1: Formulating a hypothesis/problem statement.

Guideline: Geography Grade 12 Research Tasks

Step 1: Formulating a hypothesis/problem statement. As Geographers we seek to understand and explain the interactions amongst humans, and between humans and the environment in space and time. This is achieved by asking questions or making informed geographical decisions. This entails the development of a hypothesis or a problem statement to be tested.

1. You have to choose a specific area of study where a geographical problem exists.
2. During this stage, a geographical question showing a problem is asked.
3. Identify the problem from a local area.
4. Formulate a hypothesis or a problem statement. (Hypothesis research is used to prove that certain variables are dependent on or independent of each other. Problem statement research is only to highlight that a specific problem exists in a specific community.)
5. You should then follow the steps of research to ensure that the geographical question is answered.
