Formative MCQ... then build country profiles for medc + Ledc countries

After today's formative MCQ we are going to take a look at building the country profile for your 2 selected countries-- your MEDC country and LEDC country (yes, using the word "country" is redundant).  

• Assigned Country Case Studies - Student list (a few of you still need to pick!!!)

The goal for today is to gather data on its population composition and demographics to understand more about WHY it is considered an MEDC or an LEDC.  What is this characterization and classification based upon for this country?

​Use the following resources to help you gather background data on your 2 countries:

• MEDC & LEDC - Explained (website)
  
• IfItWereMyHome.com - Country Comparisons
• CIA World Factbook
• PopulationPyramid.net
• GapMinder.org
  
• World Population Clock
• Poodwaddle - World Health Clock

HW: Read Fouberg CH.3 Migration -
​Key Questions 1-3

Begin reading Fouberg, Chapter 3: Migration. 
Read through the first three key questions:
1. What is migration?
2. Why do people migrate?
3. Where do people migrate?

Begin completing the study guide for Migration (this study guide is for use throughout the chapters on migration --both Fouberg and Rubenstein) Rubenstein's first 3 key issues are the same as Fouberg but in just a different order: 1. Where in the world...? 2. Where within a country...? Why...? 

Answer what you can and what is relevant for these 2 key questions.  It is a looong study guide so don't try to answer everything in 1 night. Because this is a longer study guide, I will provide this to you digitally this time. You will find a copy already dropped in your APHG Drop Folder.  When you have completed it (or finished what you can by the end of the unit), you may want to print it out--or at least the most helpful sections for keeping in your binder.
