The Development Gap: What is the 'Development Gap'?

£2.00
(0)
AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification unit 2B. In this lesson we look at what development means and what the development gap is. We also look at the patterns of development globally and the reasons for uneven development. There is an Ordnance Survey-themed retrieval practice starter included. We begin by looking at how development can be measured and comapre HDI with GNI using a table and the students summarise the information and determine which they think is the better measurement. We look at the global patterns of HDI and the students have a map with a variety of questions around the outside for them to answer. Then we examine how countries are classified into LIC’s, NEE’s and HIC’s, the students subsequently try to determine which countries belong in which categories. After completing the definition of the development gap, the students then complete an activity where they consider the factors that affect the level of development of a country. The students categorise these factors into social (historical), environmental, political and economic categories. The next slide has some picture clues and anagrams for the students to work out what the factors are. We then tackle a 6-mark GCSE-style question. There is a writing frame for structure and guidance on points to use. hope this saves you valuable planning time. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer

The Development Gap: Measuring Development

£2.00
(0)
AQA GCSE Geography lesson for the new specification unit 2B. In this lesson we look at how development can be measured. There is a short multiple choice retrieval practice starter. We begin by looking at the difference between standard of living and quality of life. After this the students complete an activity matching the descriptions of the development indicators up with the pictures and colour coding them into social and economic indicators. The students then create a paragraph detailing why some indicators may not be reliable, but use the pictures to work out what the missing words might be. We then look at HDI and what is is made up of. The students complete a quick activity on matching the pictures to the benefits of using HDI as a development indicator. A short game of HDI higher or lower follows which is a fun way to spark debate and consolidate learning. We then tackle a 4-mark GCSE-style question with some suggested points to use on the next slide so the students can correct/feedback on their answer. hope this saves you valuable planning time. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/markthegeographer

A simple comprehension activity for the first lesson of the ‘Using Earths resources’ section of the new AQA 9-1 Trilogy scheme of work. Information is taken directly from the specification along with some tasks for the students to complete to demonstrate and show their understanding. Can be easily adapted and changed as necessary. I find this works well with medium to lower ability students as they can work independently at their own pace whilst you are able to facilitate their learning.
