The Changing Economic World- What does global development look like?

Lesson Aim:
For pupils to understand that there are global variations in development.

Lesson Objectives:
1. To interpret photographs taken in a rural Indian village to establish the quality of life and standard of living
2. To establish what the world map of development looks like
3. To define key development terms

Resources included:
*PowerPoint presentation
* Lesson plan
* Worksheet
*Homework sheet- this requires addition of Figure 17.4 from p.251 of the new Hodder AQA GCSE text book, or a similar map showing the distribution of low income countries, newly emerging economies and high income countries (as categorised by the World Bank)

Lesson 1 of 21 from my new scheme of work on The Changing Economic World for the new AQA GCSE Geography. This lesson can work as a stand alone lesson on global development, however ideally it goes with Lesson 2 - 'Social and economic development indicators'.

This lesson requires students to make use of:
* The new AQA GCSE Hodder text book (Widdowson et al, 2016)

Differentiated with tasks for higher and lower ability students.

Three progress checks have been incorporated into this lesson.
