1.1 Population and economic development patterns
IB Geography - Unit 1 Population change

Slide 1 - Tekstslide

1 Population and economic development patterns

How population varies between places

Slide 2 - Tekstslide

1. Population and economic development patterns
How population varies between places
a) Physical and human factors affecting population distribution at the global scale

b) Global patterns and classification of economic development:
• low-income countries (LICs)
• middle-income countries and emerging economies (MICs)
• high-income countries (HICs)

c) Population distribution and economic development at the national scale, including voluntary internal migration, core-periphery patterns and megacity growth

• Two detailed and contrasting examples of uneven population distribution

Synthesis, evaluation and skills opportunities
​The relative importance of different influences on where people live and spatial interactions between places at varying scales

Slide 3 - Tekstslide

a) Physical and human factors affecting population distribution at the global scale
Physical:

1. Relief and landforms
2. Weather and climate
3. Soil type and quality 
4. Water supply
5. Vegetation
6. Raw materials/natural resources
7. Natural threats


Human:

1. Agriculture 
2. Secondary industry
3. Accessibility
4. Political decisions
5. Conflict
....



Slide 4 - Tekstslide

Do you believe that physical or human factors have the greatest effect on population density? Justify your answer with reference to examples.

Slide 5 - Open vraag

Comment on the effects of a) latitude and b) altitude. Explain the patterns you identify

Slide 6 - Open vraag

b) Global patterns and classification of economic development:
Watch the video by Hans Rosling (founder of Gapminder) that shows the distribution of population by wealth across the world. 
GNI/capita (US dollars):
- LICs:  < $1,025 
- Lower MICs: between $1,026 and $3,995
- Upper MICs: between $3,996 and $12,375
- HICs: > $12,376

(WorldBank, 2019)

Slide 8 - Tekstslide

1. What is the total wealth percentage shared by the richest 0,6 % percent of the world population?
A
39,3 %
B
43,1 %
C
14,4 %
D
3,3 %

Slide 9 - Quizvraag

Two case studies: France & Ethiopia
> contrasting examples of uneven population distribution
c) Population distribution and economic development at the national scale, including voluntary internal migration, core-periphery patterns (...)

Slide 10 - Tekstslide

Case study 1: France
1. Describe population distribution of France. 
2. The population distribution of France can be referred to as 'uneven'. Give three physical reasons why it is uneven referring to: i. relief; ii. rivers; and iii. proximity to coastal areas. 

Slide 11 - Tekstslide

3. Give three human reasons for the uneven population distribution in France. This graphic might help you:

Slide 12 - Tekstslide

3. Give three human reasons for the uneven population distribution in France.

Slide 13 - Open vraag

Case study 2: Ethiophia
1. Describe population distribution of Ethiopia. 
2. The population distribution of Ethiopia can be referred to as 'uneven'. Give two physical reasons why it is uneven referring to: i. linking relief and precipitation levels (& link to agriculture) ii. rivers (not all have water flowing)

Slide 14 - Tekstslide

Case study 2: Ethiopia

Internal migration flows in Ethiopia are currently larger than external flows, but the exact number of people who migrate internally is not known. Internal migration occurs in the form of rural-urban migration, rural-rural migration, and resettlement policies, which are all substantial in Ethiopia. Internal migration in Ethiopia has traditionally occurred at marriage when the wife moves to live in the husband's community. In addition to this traditional internal mobility, urbanization in Ethiopia is a growing trend that puts pressure on urban infrastructure and resources (De Waal, 1991: Ezra & Kiros, 2001).

Slide 15 - Tekstslide

Create a visually appealing mindmap on population and economic development
​Carefully read the paragraph and/or 
material A-D on https://www.jkgeography.com/physical-and-human-factors-affecting-global-population-distribution.html

You could research online to find additional detail/factors. 
Include: 
- physical and human factors affecting population density
- economic classifications
- core & periphery
 - types of migration flows
- case studies France & Ethiopia

Slide 16 - Tekstslide

Example of a visually attractive mindmap (from: MrsGeography)

Slide 17 - Tekstslide

Finish the case studies of France and Ehtopia
Go to https://www.ibgeographypods.org/a-population-and-economic-development-patterns.html#

Use the resources on the website and finish the case studies on France and Ethiopia.

Slide 18 - Tekstslide

Synthesis, evaluation and skills opportunities

​The relative importance of different influences on where people live and spatial interactions between places at varying scales.

France and Ethiopia are contrasting countries but both have uneven population distributions and both experience internal migration for very different reasons
