9/7/2017

Today, we will go over your results on the MCQ and FRQ. Afterwards, we will play another round of GapMinder games -- today is a horse race!
We will then discuss the 4 homework questions as it relates to understanding population growth and decline and policy decisions governments make to grapple with the population challenges they may face that affect all aspects of society (infrastructure, economics, resources, governance, etc.)

For this, we will then focus on Singapore-- it is where we are living so why not understand a bit more of what allows MOST of us at SAS to be here. Yes, population policies affect the lives of expats.

Here are helpful links for today's class:
  • Population - Family Planning Singapore National (Google Slides)
  • Singapore’s Pop Policy - Restrictive to Expansive - Background Reading Doc
  • ​“Have Three Or More -- If You Can Afford It” - SG.GOV e-doc on gov website
  • Why 80% of Singaporeans Live in Government-Built Flats” - The Economist​
  • DTM - Demographic Transition Model explained - BBC GCSE test prep

HW: Read Chapter 2 (fouberg);
focus on understanding key question #1: “Where in the world do people live and why?”
