This presentation looks at global variations in economic development and quality of life. It explores the Brandt Line (1981), the work of Alfred Sauvy ('First World, Second World ....', 1952), the Happiness Index and the Human Development Index as ways of measuring human development. Students are encouraged to think critically about the strengths and weaknesses of each model and to attempt to draw a Brandt Line for the 21st Century - yes, we know it's impossible; that's the point! This matches up with the bit in the syllabus where it says there are "Different ways of classifying parts of the world according to their level of economic development and quality of life."

Introducing Development - AQA GCSE
This is a bundle of eight presentations which cover the part of the unit 'Changing Economic World'. It should be sufficient for a month's teaching, assuming two hours' tuition per week for a GCSE class. Purchased separately the resources would cost £28.00, but I've knocked that down to £2.00 a lesson in this bundle - a time-saving £16.00 for all eight of them.
