Chapter 3 powerpoint- Human Geography
This document discusses factors that influence human and cultural geography. It covers topics like population growth, distribution, and movement. Three key points:
1) The world's population has grown rapidly in the last 200 centuries due to decreasing death rates and increasing birth rates. Most population growth is occurring in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
2) Population distribution is uneven, with many people preferring to live in areas with fertile soil, mild climates, resources, and access to cities/jobs. Population density varies significantly between different parts of the world.
3) Migration, both within and between countries, is common. People migrate due to "push" factors like lack of jobs or conflict, and "pull

The Seven Continents (ppt presentation)
This is a PowerPoint Presentation by my second class at the Cape Fear Center for Inquiry in Wilmington, North Carolina. . This presentation reflects an inquiry continuum within the thematic unit of geography. The students began by recalling what they already knew about the seven continents and then asked questions to shape their research. Students also discussed what research sources would most helpful to answer their questions. After two sessions of small group work in the computer lab, students created PowerPoint slides to synthesize their findings. This was a challenging but age-appropriate project because students had to also work cooperatively in collaborative groups, use technology responsibly and implement design ideas to support their final product
