The population of Spain is approximately 47, wikipedia The population of Andalucia is: 8,450000

Population Change Learning Objective To identify what natural change is and the factors that influence it. -All pupils to identify what birth and death rate mean. 4 -Most pupils can state a reason why the birth and death rate may increase and decrease. 5 -Some pupils can state the reasons why Spain´s population has started to decrease. 6

Create your own image to explain the Natural change in Population

Do the factors increase or decrease natural change? Many young children die due to poor health care Famine causing lots of people to die due to lack of food Parents wanting lots of children to help provide an income (such as working on farms) Disease (for example HIV/AIDS) causing lots of people to die. War/Conflict Lack of birth control/family planning No education about the benefits of a smaller family In many rural areas it can be the tradition to have lots of children Government policies which want to strengthen their population Better health care. Drug use, alcoholism and sexually transmitted diseases (STD’s)Lack of resources Peaceful conditions within the country Government policies (such as the One Child Policy in ) A culture which means men have a high status for having lots of children Education about the benefits of a smaller family

Think about Spain’s population Do you think the population is increasing or decreasing? Media Reports might make you think it is increasing, but it actually is decreasing. Why do you think Spain’s population is decreasing? Link your answer to the birth and death rate. (Remember to gain the higher levels you need to explain Why, How and use examples!)

THINK! Why are some places really crowded and others not?

Population Density and distribution Learning Objective -To learn how population density is calculated and why some places are densely populated whilst others are sparsely populated. -All pupils to define what densely and sparsely populated mean. -All pupils can contrast between Population density and distribution. 4 -Most pupils can identify reasons why people do or do not want to live in a place. -Most pupils can confidently interpret a choropleth map. 5 -Some pupils can identify places where there are high or low populations --Some pupils can suggest why some areas have a high population distribution. 6

Where would you prefer to live in a densely or sparsely populated place ? Why?

What’s the density? Some areas of the world are more populated than others. We use population density as a measure of how many people live in a set area. Population density is measured in people per square kilometre (km 2 ). Population density = Number of people/Area(km 2 ) India has a population of 1,103,371,000 and covers 3,287,263km 2. The population density of India is 336.

What is the population density of England? The population is 52,095,895 England covers kilometres squared. Population density = Number of people / Area(km 2 ) 1713 PER KM2 is the population density of England. This is pretty high!

What is the population density of Spain? The population is 47,270,000 Spain covers 504,782 kilometres squared. Population density = Number of people / Area(km 2 ) 93 per km squared is the population density of Spain.

THINK! Is this a good way to calculate population?

Density vs distribution Density figures only tell us how many people live in an area. The population can be evenly spread. Often, distribution of the population is affected by factors of physical and human geography. To describe the way people are distributed around an area we need to talk about the population distribution. Alternatively, the population can be randomly distributed. The population can also be clustered around one specific location.

When describing population distribution there are guidelines that should be followed. Describe the obvious pattern. Where do most people live? What areas are most populated? Give figures, if available, and locations. Using accurate figures helps support your description. Give any exceptions to the ‘obvious pattern’. Are there areas that do no fit in with the general population distribution? A choropleth map is a very accurate tool to use when describing population distribution. Describing distribution

Task For the Choropleth map describe the population distribution in Spain. To reach the higher levels include: -Use Key words -Values e.g it is 2.5 – 6.3% -Compass Directions -Towns and Major cities (use an atlas to help you)

Keywords General Trend Anomaly Results that do not fit the pattern General pattern

World Population Density Learning Objectives -To explore areas in the world where there is a dense and sparse population density. - All pupils can state an area that is sparsely populated in the world. 3 -Most pupils can identify an area in the world that is densely populated and why. 4/5 -Some pupils can describe the world population density. 5/6

World Population Density – by country Western Europe and Asia are densely populated North America, South America and Africa have a low population density

Out of every 100 persons added to the population in the coming decade, 97 will live in developing countries.

Reminder Population Density People are unevenly distributed around the world. The difference in distribution is measured by comparing population density - the number of people per square kilometre (km²) if it were even! Population density is determined more by environmental factors which make an area more or less attractive to settlers than by economic development.

The way in which people are spread across a given area is known as population distribution. Patterns of population distribution tend to be uneven. For example, in Spain there are more people living in the coastal areas than in the central plains. Reminder Population Distribution

In the World come up with 2 for each... Densely Populated areas in the World Sparsely Populated areas in the World WHY? What impact will the following have on population distribution? EXPLAIN! CLIMATE WORK RELIEF TRANSPORT GIVE EXAMPLES FOR EACH ONE! CAN YOU THINK OF ANY MORE FACTORS? HDI: A mixture of different indicators signs which tell us about how developed a country is GDP: How much money a country has

What is this? What does it tell us about the population of a place?

Population Pyramids To explain what Population pyramids show us and how they may differ. -All pupils can explain a population pyramid shows us. 4 -Most pupils can correctly analyse a population pyramid. 5 -Some pupils can compare the differences in pyramids for LEDCs and MEDCs, offering reasons. 6

Keywords: Census: a count of the number of people in a place Demography: The study of the population of a place Population pyramid: A way of presenting population data Sex-ratio: The number of men compared to the number of women Age distribution: The amount of different age groups in a country Dependent Population: The amount of population below the age of 16 and above the age of 65 (who are dependent on the government) Economically Active: The number of people working and contributing to the country

Demography is the study of people and populations. Governments carry out a census to find out who lives in their country. They use the information to produce population structures However, they are taken at different times in different countries and often country boundaries change so it is difficult for a census to be accurate. Some countries can not afford to do a census and people do not always fill in the forms so the population of the world can only be an estimate. Demographers use census information to create population pyramids

What do they show? Sex-ratio: the amount of males to females in a location Males are shown on the left. Females are shown on the right.

What do they show? Age distribution of a country Age categories split into 5 year stages

Dependent Population: The population under the age of 15 and over 65 What do they show? Children 0-14 years of age Elderly population 65+ years of age

Economically Active: years old who have the potential to contribute economically What do they show? Workforce

What do they show? In this country there is a high Birth Rate There is also a high Death Rate.

What should you annotate? Sex-ratio: what is the male/female ratio Birth Rate: Is the BR increasing or decreasing

How would the population pyramid look if it was a developing country (LEDC)?

What do population pyramids look like for different stages of the DTM? Stage 5?

Task: Population pyramid analysis 1)Where is the country? 2)Annotate the pyramid to show what it tells us about: - Sex ratio - dependants - economically active - birth rate - Death rate 1)Why could this population structure look like this? 2)What problems could this cause for the country? 3)How could these problems be solved?
