Revision Population change over time LO To understand

Revision: Population change over time LO: To understand the patterns of population change globally and over time.

Learning Outcomes: • Identifying that population will change over time due to different factors (E) • Explaining how specific factors will influence population change over time and in different levels of development (C) • Analysing population change in different specific countries at different stages of development, using key words and examples (A/A*).

To start: Population change over time… Think: Use the words birth rate, death rate, life expectancy, healthcare, standards of living to help describe and explain this graph.

Population data: Think: How does this data identify whether a country is an LEDC or an MEDC? What things may influence each of these indicators? Think: Why is this graph a true representation of world population? Why are most mega cities (cities with over 10 million people) in LEDCs?

The Demographic Transition Model: Think: In which stage would you put: a). Kenya b). India WHY? c). USA d). Germany

A group task: Group 1: Stage 1 Group 2: Stage 2 Group 3: Stage 3 Group 4: Stage 4 Group 5: Stage 5 In your groups look at your stage of the DTM. a). Describe what is happening in reference to the birth rate, death rate and total population. b). Suggest which countries would fit into this model, or which time period it may reflect for a certain country. c). Suggest any critiques of the DTM generally.

To finish: • How does this change or influence population change over time and in different countries?
